Read the excerpt from Hamlet. Hamlet: Follow him, friends: we’ll hear a play to-morrow. [Exit POLONIUS, with all the Players but
the First.] Dost thou hear me, old friend; can you play the Murder of Gonzago? First Player: Ay, my lord. Hamlet: We’ll ha ’t to-morrow night. You could, for a need, study a speech of some dozen or sixteen lines, which I would set down and insert in ’t, could you not? First Player: Ay, my lord. To make the First Player a complex character, Shakespeare would need to make him represent a single idea. have few emotions. change over time. have a simple personality.
In order to create a complex character, the author must show that he is capable of learning, growing, and changing. This does not have to be a positive growth or change, villains and antagonists can be complex characters as well, but to make a character complex it must have many sides that are shown and revealed slowly and differently throughout the story.
Plagiarism- the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own. it is also neglecting to include an accurate citation
