Since A. C. Bradley, many critics have not only defined the relationship between Hamlet and Ophelia as the abortive romantic love story, which functions as a decoration to a revenge story, but have also thought that Ophelia is a weak, dependant figure. But traditional criticism overlooks much of Polonius' suspicious manipulation of her daughter and the potentiality of Ophelia as a weak vessel, which complicates and intensifies Hamlet's agony. Recently Elaine Showalter, Annette Kolodney, and Gohlke have pulled Ophelia up in center from the marginal, and have reconsidered the turmoil of Hamlet's soul centering on the body and sexuality of Gertrude and Ophelia. In this context, my paper aims to put Ophelia back up front, highlighting the metaphoric pattern of evil spirits in the relationship of Hamlet and Ophelia. First, reconsidering Ophelia in center asks us first to see Claudius and Polonius as evil spirits in metaphoric pattern. In this play Claudius, who murdered King Hamlet and whored his wife, consciously or unconsciously dominates Hamlet's soul. Similarly Polonius, who once loyally served King Hamlet and now turned a tool for Claudius, even using her daughter Ophelia as a bait, distresses Hamlet's soul. Polonius is another shadow of Claudius's evil spirit. Second, Gertrude and Ophelia form a metaphoric pattern as evil spirits, which torment Hamlet's soul all through the play until he dies. Hamlet's mother Gertrude, who betrayed her husband and now quickly threw herself into the bosom of Claudius, consciously or unconsciously tortures Hamlet's soul. Likewise Ophelia, who once loved Hamlet and now returns his letters and gifts to him, showing a sign of a weak vessel, gnaws Hamlet's soul like an evil spirit.
Abstract
Since A. C. Bradley, many critics have not only defined the relationship between Hamlet and Ophelia as the abortive romantic love story, which functions as a decoration to a revenge story, but have also thought that Ophelia is a weak, dependant figure. But traditional criticism overlooks much of Polonius' suspicious manipulation of her daughter and the potentiality of Ophelia as a weak vessel, which complicates and intensifies Hamlet's agony. Recently Elaine Showalter, Annette Kolodney, and Gohlke have pulled Ophelia up in center from the marginal, and have reconsidered the turmoil of Hamlet's soul centering on the body and sexuality of Gertrude and Ophelia. In this context, my paper aims to put Ophelia back up front, highlighting the metaphoric pattern of evil spirits in the relationship of Hamlet and Ophelia. First, reconsidering Ophelia in center asks us first to see Claudius and Polonius as evil spirits in metaphoric pattern. In this play Claudius, who murdered King Hamlet and whored his wife, consciously or unconsciously dominates Hamlet's soul. Similarly Polonius, who once loyally served King Hamlet and now turned a tool for Claudius, even using her daughter Ophelia as a bait, distresses Hamlet's soul. Polonius is another shadow of Claudius's evil spirit. Second, Gertrude and Ophelia form a metaphoric pattern as evil spirits, which torment Hamlet's soul all through the play until he dies. Hamlet's mother Gertrude, who betrayed her husband and now quickly threw herself into the bosom of Claudius, consciously or unconsciously tortures Hamlet's soul. Likewise Ophelia, who once loved Hamlet and now returns his letters and gifts to him, showing a sign of a weak vessel, gnaws Hamlet's soul like an evil spirit.
