Hamlet is referring to Polonius when he says "These tedious old fools".

In Shakespeare's play Hamlet, Polonius is the counsellor of the king but he is also Ophelia's father. He is on Claudius's side and he even commits to spy on Hamlet. Moreover, throughout the play, Polonius tries to control her daughter's life. He is the one that tells her to stop seeing Hamlet. For all these reasons, Hamlet considers him a "tedious old fool". Later in the play, he kills Polonius accidentally.

How do Romeo’s banishment and the change in Juliet’s wedding date affect the central conflict of the play?

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Sample Response: Romeo wants to be with Juliet, but now that he is banished he is even farther away from her than before. When Juliet's father moves up the wedding date, she is backed into a corner because her family may find out that she got married behind their backs. In addition, if she is forced to marry Paris, she will never be with her true love, Romeo. Both complications relate to the central conflict because they create even more obstacles that keep Romeo and Juliet apart.
