Hamlet’s madness was not only useless it also aroused the suspicions of the king.

1)Hemlet’s madness probably aroused the suspicion of the king. Hamlet wanted to act crazy thinking people will ignore his strange actions. The king hired Rozencraz and Guildensturn to find out why Hamlet was acting mad and by doing this the king might have discovered that Hamlet knew about the murder of his father. The king did not know that Hamlet knew who killed father until Hamlet presented the play “Mouse Trap”, but he was certainly curious and also little suspicious about Hemlet’s madness. After talking to Polonius, the king tells Polonius “Madness in great ones must not go”(line 203,act3,sc1) before he exits. Here, the king knows Hamlet is a intelligent person and he suspects there is a good reason behind his madness.

2)While the king was trying to solve the mystery of Hemlet’s madness other members of the court were also trying to find out what made Hamlet mad or helping the king to find out why Hamlet was mad. Polonious was also curious about Hemlet’s madness and he also spied on Hamlet while Ophelia talk to Hamlet. Although no one finds out exact cause of his madness Polonius was paying close enough attention to make a guess. Polonius thought Ophelia probably caused Hemlet’s madness. Polonius told Ophelia to stop seeing Hamlet and he thought this was the cause of Hemlet’s madness. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were also working to find out the cause of Hemlet’s madness, but they were working for the king. Many characters in the play were very interested in why Hamlet was mad and it probably wasn’t what Hamlet had in his mind when he planed to act like a mad man.

3)Hemlet’s madness encouraged many members of the court to pay a close attention to him and after the play “Mouse Trap”, Hemlet’s feigned madness was useless and probably harmful to Hamlet. Hamlet acted mad so that people won’t take his actions seriously, but people had more interest in him and tried harder to see why he was acting mad. Hemlet’s feigned madness was completely useless when he presented his play. The king had little suspicions about Hemlet’s madness all along. The king hires Rosencratz and Guildensturn to spy on Hamlet more than once. When the king watched the play “Mouse Trap” he knew that Hamlet knew about the murder. From this point on the king knows that Hamlet is planing something to revenge and his madness was a part of it. Hemlet’s madness was not only useless from this point, but it probably made the king more agitated and the king decides to kill Hamlet. The king was determined to kill Hamlet no matter what he does.

Hemlet’s feigned madness served no useful purpose. Hamlet was center of everyone’s interest because of his madness. 1)Hemlet’s madness probably aroused the suspicions of the king . 2)Because people were trying to figure out why he was acting mad, people paid more close attention to Hamlet. 3)When Hamlet presented his play “Mouse Trap”, the king knew that Hamlet knew about the murder and Hemlet’s feigned madness probably made the king more suspicious and impatient to get rid of Hamlet. Hemlet’s feigned madness was not only useless it also aroused the suspicions of the king.
