Hamlet, Part 6: Applying Literary Criticism

Question 2 • CA-English Language Arts 12 A

Which detail in Hamlet reflects Elizabethan society?

Answer
A
A prince is fighting his stepfather for control of the country.
B
The form of government is a monarchy.
C
The queen is concerned about the health of her son.
D
The ruler of the time is a king.

Explanation

Elizabethan England was a monarchy, with political power held by a royal ruler. Hamlet’s setting has a royal family and a king, so the form of government being a monarchy reflects Elizabethan society. The ruler at the time was Queen Elizabeth I, not a king, so choice D is not accurate.
