Sartoris Analysis

He cannot take revenge on the man who got rid of his father and took his place with his mother. The horror could awaken Hamlet’s violence, which is replaced by remorse and scruples of conscience. Scruples in the consciousness that correspond to something that goes beyond it, that is, in the unconscious.

In Shakespeare's Hamlet, the main character continually delays acting out his duty of avenging his father's murder. This essay will discuss how Hamlet's nature and morals (which are intensified by difficult events) prevent him from carrying out the task.

Hamlet has lived through plenty of ups and downs throughout his childhood. He has been lost and confused within himself, but knew he wanted one thing, which was revenge on his fathers killer, Claudius. His passion of hate developed for Claudius as he married Hamlets mother shortly after the king’s death. Hamlet could not decide on the perfect decision for himself, his mother and father as well as the best way to follow through with the best consequence for Claudius that would impress his father. His everyday life, along with his love life, left him with an empty heart, which slowed the process of the revenge down. Hamlet never expected to be captured and kidnapped by pirates, as he was sent overseas as a young man. His inside thoughts were attacking and overwhelming Him, leaving him depressed and anxious. Hamlet’s life has been leading him to negative thoughts that he cannot process or act accordingly to, due to the excessive amount of issues and options involved in his life at a young age, him being overwhelmed lead him to delaying the process of avenging his fathers killer.

Although Abner’s aggression and vengeance leads himself to the wrong end, he teaches Santoris about standing up for himself and doing right thing. Throughout the incident with Abner planning to burn the barn, Santoris finally runs away from his own family. He thought to himself, “I could run on and on and never look back, never need to see his face again. Only I can’t, I can’t” (489). He escapes from the restrain from his mother and the rest of the family. But, he finally decides not to run anymore and stands up to face against the wrong his father is doing. By understanding the thought process of Sartoris, the readers can see the change in Sartoris surely is affected by seeing his father’s negative actions throughout the story. Santoris begins to understand what is consider the “correct” thing to do by seeing enough of his father’s incorrect actions. In fact, towards the end of the story, after the gunshots, Sartoris whispers to himself, “He was brave!”(491). Again, the readers can see that even though Sartoris doesn’t like to be under the fear of his father, he still respects his father for teaching him about family, doing the right thing, and standing up for himself as his guidance and remainders. Overall, the effect of Abner as his son’s role model is not be the best model to learn from,

Hamlet is as much a story of emotional conflict, paranoia, and self-doubt as it is one of revenge and tragedy. The protagonist, Prince Hamlet of Denmark, is instructed by his slain father’s ghost to enact vengeance upon his uncle Claudius, whose treacherous murder of Hamlet’s father gave way to his rise to power. Overcome by anguish and obligation to avenge his father’s death, Hamlet ultimately commits a number of killings throughout the story. However, we are not to view the character Hamlet as a sick individual, but rather one who has been victimized by his own circumstances.

The tragedy of this story is that Sartoris knows that eventually that his father is either going to kill someone or be killed because of all the wrong doing. Sartoris wants to snitch on his father, but he is scared that he might not make it out of the court room and doesn’t want his family to shun him for turning on his blood. The superior force that pushes Sartoris to go against his father is when he gets hit by his father because he thought he was going to tell on him. Also that he keeps ruining other people’s stuff and life. One of these times he isn’t going to just hurt someone’s stuff,

Throughout generations, fathers have played an important role in their children’s life; specifically their son’s. A son may learn many life lessons from their father figures, such as morals and how to confront difficult situations. In the novel, The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini, the main character Amir, does not seem to inherit the same morals and common sense as his father, Baba. Both Baba and Amir have sinned a plethora of times, but their individual sins and how they dealt with the guilt, differs greatly. This perspective proves that although a father and son may share the same DNA, they do not always think or react in the same manner.

Therefore, the theme of procrastination in Hamlet is the cause of delay in taking the revenge of Hamlet’s father’s murder. However, the theme of long delays and seeking alternative to revenge such as in the form of suicide while c considering it less sinful as compare to revenge from the aspect of the Christian theology also discloses that Hamlet is sensible and even in the times of emotional instability, he does not fall beneath what is humanlike behavior. On the contrary, Titus does not show such emotional savvy while expression grave concern and shows eagerness to avenge the murder (Burwick 24).

In May 1994, Suleiman receives news of his father’s arrest once more in Libya. Amid rumors of embezzlement, it is soon revealed that Democracy Now – the book Suleiman saves from burning 15 years earlier – is the reason behind the arrest. For four months, Suleiman attempts to distance himself from his mother who has been obsessively trying to reach him and who seems to have surrendered to her medicine once more in light of her husband’s imprisonment. Furthermore, he refuses to respond to a letter from his childhood friend Kareem, choosing instead to remain silent in a bid for “immortality, a desire very similar to wanting to be free of the past” (238). In September of the same year, an amnesty in commemoration of the revolution in Libya grants

“Ab unjustly accuses Sarty of intending to betray him at the hearing, but he correctly recognizes that his son is moving out of childhood, developing a mind and will of his own and is no longer blindly loyal. In instructing the boy that everyone is the enemy and his loyalty belongs to his blood … Blood loyalty means total identification with Ab….” (Gorman, 163.)

Prince Hamlet, a university student, is an extremely philosophical and thoughtful character. When his father the King of Denmark dies, Hamlet returns home only to be presented with evidence that suggests his uncle Claudius may have been responsible for his father’s murder. In the initial acts of the tragedy, Hamlet seeks to prove his uncle’s guilt and contemplates all of his actions and

Suleiman, the protagonist of Hisham Matar’s In the Country of Men is placed in an ethical paradox. With the novel taking place in Tripoli, Libya 1979, Suleiman’s loyalty is contradictory, having to choose between the principles of his family and the Gaddafi regime. The bombardment of propaganda and the arrests of ‘traitors’ along with the love of his family causes Suleiman to be in constant conflict with his moral sense of self. His loyalties are tied with his actions, often following with regret on whether he has betrayed the people he trusts. Between the constant sense of authority and his family, Suleiman finds his loyal actions to become a casualty for the

Abner told Sarty "You are getting to be a man. You got to learn. You got to learn to stick to your own blood or you ain't going to have any blood to stick to you?" Abner has a personality that is always us against them. It was the family versus the enemy. For Abner there are two types of people, his

The strongest point of comparison between the two characters in question is their mutual descent into mental instability and the degree to which this influences their behavior. Indeed, the common ground in the two stories is at the outset, when an ailing ruler is manipulated into divided his kingdom amongst his children. This division of territories, an event stimulated by individual vanity and infirmity, would have consequences kingdom-wide. The unraveling of civility and familial bonds which would occur thereafter is common to both tellings.
