Did you use evidence to support your request? Did you try to present your own character in a way that would make your case more believable? Did you try to engage the emotions of your audience? Write a short description of your efforts to persuade your audience in this case.

Do Now What does being alive mean to you? How do you value life? What makes life challenging? What makes it worth living? Describe a few examples that help show your thinking about how people should value life.

William Shakespeare’s Hamlet What do you know about the play Hamlet? Character List: King Hamlet Prince Hamlet Claudius Queen Gertrude Horatio Rosencrantz &Guildenstern Polonius Ophelia Laertes Fortinbras

Hamlet ‘s Soliloquy Background At this point in the play, Hamlet feels that he is in a crisis. His father died a few months earlier under mysterious circumstances. Hamlet discovers that his father was secretly murdered—by Hamlet’s uncle, Claudius. Making things even worse, Claudius then marries Hamlet’s mother. Hamlet does not know what to do about this knowledge. He wonders whether he can trust anyone or if perhaps he is going crazy. As you first read the text, focus on what you see as the “big picture” Hamlet describes. Based on this first reading, would you say that Hamlet is an optimist or a pessimist? What are your reasons for thinking so?

Use your annotations and translations to answer the following questions: What is the big issue in Hamlet’s soliloquy? What claim or argument about the value of life does Hamlet make? What do you think about the Hamlet’s claim? (More than a one sentence response. Really explore your opinion and feelings about his claim).
