This website consists of an essay that analyzes Gertrude and her inability to recognize that Claudius has intentions to harm Hamlet. Although Gertrude never had intentions to harm Hamlet herself, she was not able to recognize Claudius’s intentions early on because she had a difficult time seeing past her romantic outlook on life. Eventually, Gertrude comes to realize that Claudius has been trying to harm Hamlet all along. Unfortunately, she does not realize this until she is dying from the poisoned beverage that Claudius intended to kill Hamlet with. The author of this essay provides insight to Gertrude’s motives and characteristics and illustrates that Gertrude’s main intention throughout the play is to protect Hamlet.
