structure

T.S. Eliot's structure seems to be set up by thought process. He splits up each individual thought into a stanza rather than putting them all together. This helps the reader follow the thoughts more easily rather than be confused when he swithes topics.

hamlet's crazy yo

:Why can't Gertrude see the ghost even though he was her husband?

The ghost was never there. Hamlet made it up as all part of his front. He was pretending the ghost was there to take his mother's mind off of the things he said. The ghost would have more reason to show up in front of Gertrude rather than Hamlet. The ghost in the bedroom displays completely different characteristics than that of the first act. in Act 1 the ghost is eager to talk and stays around to explain himself. But this time the ghost 'shows up' makes an appearance to Hamlet, then leaves.

oppressed sight

There are a few differnt worldviews that hamlet is has forced upon him. First from the status his family has, Hamlet is pushed to be studious and proper. There is also presure to be normal as a prince can be, so as to not be a disgrace to the family. However with these his mother is also showing him that it is ok to follow your desires by marrying claudius. Hamlet successfully makes his own 'version" of these and doesnt follow them to a T. There must be enourmous pressure on him with his father's death and being a prince and all.
