In Hamlet, we have a grieving man mourning the murder of his father. Does this sound familiar? In his plot for revenge, Hamlet decides to stage a play about a Greek myth (eerily similar to the real life of Hamlet) to prove King Claudius as guilty with his reaction to this play Hamlet directs. FATHER-SON CONFLICT

THE AENIED

WARRIORS OF TROY KING PRIAM: King of Troy (He is old) HECUBA: Priam’s wife; Queen of Troy HECTOR: Priam and Hecuba’s prized son that is murdered by Achilles (along with several of his brothers on the same day) PARIS: Priam and Hecuba’s handsome son that kills Achilles eventually WARRIORS OF GREECE ACHILLES: Famous Greek Warrior that shows compassion to Priam’s sorrow PYRRHUS: Achilles’ son that wants revenge; murders King Priam to avenge his father’s death THE AENEID KEY CHARACTERS

Achilles, the great Greek warrior chases Hector around the wall of Troy three times before the goddess Athena disguises herself and convinces Hector to fight Achilles face to face. Wanting to go down fighting, he charges at Achilles with his only weapon, his sword, but misses. Accepting his fate, Hector begs Achilles, not to spare his life, but to treat his body with respect after killing him. Achilles tells Hector it is hopeless to expect that of him, declaring that "my rage, my fury would drive me now to hack your flesh away and eat you raw – such agonies you have caused me.” Achilles then kills Hector. ACHILLES & HECTOR

Hector’s father, King Priam of Troy, pleads with Achilles for the return of Hector's body so that he can be properly buried. Achilles decides to return the body for a funeral and offers a truce for Priam to mourn the loss of his son.pleads Later, Paris (King Priam’s other son) shoots Achilles in the heel with an arrow that kills him. Achilles’ son, Pyrrhus, is heartbroken and wants to avenge his father Achilles’ death. Pyrrhus brutally murders King Priam on the altar as the King’s wife, Hecuba, watches helplessly. THE STORY OF COMPASSION & REVENGE

As we watch Hamlet direct this play describing Pyrrhus’ revenge and murder, consider the connections between the characters. What mythological characters can we connect to the characters in Hamlet? What is the purpose of this play? Why does Hamlet choose this myth to perform? How can you interpret the myth’s conflict in Hamlet? Consider obvious conflicts and then also think outside of the box.
