her to battle with her self on weither to follow her heart or
what her dad says.
• Prince Hamlet mourns death of both his
  parents, Queen Gertrude's remarriage to
  Claudius. Hamlet sees his fathers ghost whom
  tells him that Claudius has poisoned him. Hamlet
  promises revenge. He kills the eavesdropping
  Polonius, the court chamberlain. Polonius's son
  Laertes returns to Denmark to avenge his father's
  death. Polonius's daughter Ophelia loves Hamlet

  obedient to her father "I shall obey my Lord" , She is
  connected to the courtyard through her Father , She loves her
  Father but also wants to stay true to her true love
• Through Ophelia we see how hamlet turns into a man who
  believes all woman are whores, Ophelia is prostituted by her
  father
• Ophelia has no control over her body, her relationships, or her
  choices- She is forced to join a nunnery by Hamlet.
Ophelia goes crazy as her Father and Brother try to
persuade her to not see Hamlet whom she loves.
She obeys and brakes up with Hamlet , falling victim of
his rage and manipulation, Hamlet then accidently kills
her father leaving Ophelia with no family in the area,
Ophelia is then alone and has no one to trust her
innocents is not able to cope with all the issues that
are occurring and she falls into depression, this makes
her go mad and drown, which many people believe is
suicide, in the middle of the play.
Ophelia drowns in
the middle of the
play and is not alive
at the end of the
play.
"I shall obey my Lord“- Ophelia is obedient towards her father


"The fair Ophelia“- used to describe Ophelia

Say you? Nay, pray you, mark. [Sings.]       “He is dead and gone, lady,
  He is dead and gone;
At his head a grass-green turf
  At his heels a stone.” – Ophelia after finding out her dad is dead.

“get thee to a nunnery”- Hamlet wanting her to go to a nunnery because he
believes she is a whore.
