Q1..”To be or not to be…” What do you
think, Hamlet is talking about in this soliloquy?
When Hamlet said this famous quote (at which time he did NOThave a skull), he was contemplating whether it would be best to be [alive] or not to be [alive] because he could see all these crazy things going on, like his uncle killing his father and marrying his sister-in-law, etc., and he was basically depressed. He was thinking about suicide and whether or not he would suffer less if he were dead.
