<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Conclusion <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">To conclude, majority of the people I have asked around my school in various different grades and genders do not think revenge is good. Majority of the people are neutral in the sense that they would stick up for someone if need be, but not blow things out of proportion. Considering I asked people within different races I got pretty even results all across the poll.

1. Would there have been another way for Hamlet to get revenge without all the fatalities at the end and throughout the play? 2. Does your perspective of Hamlet change throughout the play based on the way he handles situations and gets revenge? 3. Is Laertes right to seek revenge on Hamlet when he killed Polonius because he was hiding in the queens room?
