Question

How does Claudius really feel about Hamlets mourning?

Answer 1

Claudius thinks that Hamlet mourns too much.

Explanation:

Hamlet (full title: The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark) is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare between 1599 and 1602. The tragedy follows Hamlet, the prince of Denmark, who seeks revenge against his uncle, Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father in order to seize the Danish throne and marry Hamlet's mother.

Following his father's death, Hamlet grieves, and Claudius thinks that he mourns too much. We can see that based on the following Claudius' lines:

'Tis sweet and commendable in your nature, Hamlet,

To give these mourning duties to your father:

But, you must know, your father lost a father;

That father lost, lost his; and the survivor bound

In filial obligation for some term

To do obsequious sorrow; but to presever

In obstinate condolement is a course

Of impious stubbornness. 'Tis unmanly grief.
