In "The Slump," John Updike uses the national pastime, baseball, as the setting to explore one individual's frustration with the world. The story is told by a professional ballplayer who finds himself, for no identifiable reason, unable to hit as well as he once did. He thinks about why this might be, but not very deeply; for the most part, he accepts this slump as his fate and considers what it says about life in general. The story depicts the superstitious nature of athletes in the way that its narrator hopes for better days without having any hope that anything he can do would make his luck return.
The following are reasons to conclude that Hamlet had not gone mad:
- He told Laertes that he had acted strangely because he was temporarily insane. Someone who was truly mad will not know this fact.
- He knowingly acted wildly when the King and Polonius arranged a meeting to observe him.
- He was also sane because he overheard something that Polonius said over the curtain and killed her for it.
The above three points are reasons to believe that Hamlet was not actually mad in the story.
He was simply acting up because he could still process the events that were happening around him.
