Hamlet, Part 7: Plot and Character

Question 6 • CA-English Language Arts 12 A

Which question is most likely to be asked by a reader studying a text with a feminist perspective?

Answer
A
Which character has more power: Hamlet or Claudius?
B
Which character has more power: Gertrude or Claudius?
C
Why was a story about royal heirs important in Shakespeare’s time?
D
Why was a story about an unhappy prince important in Shakespeare’s time?

Explanation

A feminist perspective focuses on gender and how women relate to power and influence. Asking whether Gertrude or Claudius has more power examines a female character’s position compared with a male character’s. The other choices either compare two men or ask about the story’s historical importance rather than gender.
