Hamlet Transformation
Hamlet makes a personality transformations in the play. When Hamlet first suspects that Claudius killed Old Hamlet, his father, he pretends to be angry. He pretends to be angry so the people around him will be scared. People around him find it normal and adapt to it though, they figure that since he did just loose his father and his mother just married his uncle that it was normal behaviour. The eventually believe that this is his normal personality, even though he is faking the whole thing. They all believe he is grieving and angry about the events, and that his personality changed when really he is just acting this way cause he suspects Claudius of killing his father
