Question

What great lesson about life does it appear that Hamlet has learned to accept?
at the end of the play?

Answer 1

That death is a part of life In the second act (To be or not to be) he considers death but he is afraid, by the time he gets to the graveyard and sees Yoricks skull he realizes everything that lives must die.

Answer 2

What I have learned the hard way, is never to make a hasty decision regarding a life changing element. Always think things through, weigh- ing the pros' and cons' before making that decision. As often, once you have made up your mind too quickly, you can change the rest of your life, that you wouldn't have planned on, necessarily. Once you travel down that path you hastily chose, invariably, you regret it and can't turn around and take the other path. At least, without creating major chaos in your life, and others. So as they sang in that Disney, Davy Crockett song, "Be sure you're right, and then go ahead".

Answer 3

Hamlet comes to accept that with life comes death. In the graveyard sense, Yorik's skull is used to show that death is inevitable, and that all die. Throughout the entire play, Hamlet obsesses with death. He wants to avenge his father's death, by killing his uncle, the King. He ponders killing himself ("to be or not to be" soliloquy). And death is a major theme throughout the play-- by the end of the play, his father, Polonious, his mother, his uncle, Ophelia, and even he, are dead. In a sense, even the nation has died, since the entire royal family dies, and Young Fortinbra's comes to rule.
