Yes, in one way, the essay makes you think of the strength of human spirit when it endures severe situations.
James Baldwin “Notes of a Native Son” refers to racial issues in America. The topic of the story shows how Baldwin goes through a cycle of events. He contemplates the death of his stepfather, his youngest sister’s birth, his nineteenth birthday, and race problems in Harlem. The events and the way they presented makes Baldwin wonder about the spirit of human nature and what it needs to endure to live by.
Baldwin explores the bitterness and suffering of black Americans while remembering his father’s mental health. Baldwin thinks he can inherit the paranoia that affected his father and questions himself the way trauma is passed through generations.
In act III, scene iii, Claudius is kneeling in prayer when Hamlet finds him. He doesn't kill him, even though he has the perfect opportunity, because "Now might I do it pat, now he is praying;/And now I'll do't./And so he goes to heaven;/And so am I revenged. That would be scann'd:/A villain kills my father; and for that,/I, his sole son, do this same villain send/To heaven."
<span>In the next scene, Hamlet mistakes Polonius hiding behind the arras for Claudius. Unlike, scene iii, he's not in prayer, so there is no similar worry about whether he'll go to heaven. </span>
<span>Throughout the play, Hamlet seems to have this inner conflict over whether revenge is the 'right' thing to do. And what comes after death from a Christian perspective, depending upon how a person meets their end. It's something that is dealt with in more detail in the 'to be or not to be' speech and the 'gravedigger' scene. </span>
<span>Hope that helps!</span>
