The Characters of Hamlet and Holden

For some people, this statement may seem like the most obvious misunderstanding, even embarrassment, or lack of taste, in fact literary flaws. When people can think of comparing immortal Prince Denmark Hamlet and Sarlinger's wheat field watcher youth hero, we may say we have reached the end. Singer 's hero has been compared with many literary figures from Huckleberry Finn to David Copperfield. He took various attitudes towards himself. Stop talking about him and write something else.

Holden and Hamlet have recently been shocked by the accidental death of their loved ones: in the case of Holden this is his brother Ellie, in the case of Hamlet this is his father, King Hamlet. Especially when he discovered that his uncle could have killed his father and when Holden was eventually killed, both Holden and Hamlet were under great mental pressure. Both are alienated by the hypocrisy of the surrounding people, neither comes from a privileged background and money is fine. Of course, Hamlet was a prince, Holden learned at a series of elite boarding schools and had a large amount of cash at hand when I got to New York.

How is Holden different from Hamlet and how are they similar?

Both Holden and Hamlet believe that we are weak, only to think for ourselves, to lie, to deceive, to correct our own story to make it look good to others. J. D. Salinger and Shakespeare wrote a story after an unreliable narrator. Holden and Hamlet were also supported by the people around them and made them slowly enthralled. Every time her mouth opens, Holden's parents shuffle in the boarding school and Hamlet Ophelia's life. Holden knows about every false interaction he is seeing. After entering Ernie 's bar, Holden soon began a fake call. He discovered that you can not see the hands of a pianist, but you can see a huge mirror to see his big face. "He puts all these ridiculous and showy singers into a high tone" (p. 84). Holden then looked around and saw the crowd "They were crazy" (p. 84). After noticing the lie of the entire hall, Holden became almost sick from the whole incident, but in Holden's words this was a fake.

In some respects Holden's role is Hamlet. Like Charles Kegel wrote, like Hamlet, Holden is "a sad, messed-up man" (54), which seemingly real, but really hypocritical words suffered. Holden does not seem to be able to find honesty and truth among others, and he tries to keep within himself. Holden is truth to use the word "real" to state the fact, and often to the reader to point out that it is true to prove that he is not lying. Holden is often frightened and he finds occasionally that he must exist hypocratically in the adult world.
