Hamlet- Act 3, Scene 4, About Polonius

In today’s class, I think the character of Polonius is so pity after stabbed by Hamlet. And I don’t think Polonius could be a mere character but a kind of set in terms to human nature. He could have taken the opportunity later to know the truth behind the plan set by Hamlet since he seems to be eager to spy on someone, immersing himself in pondering the phenomenon he has seen. Nonetheless, he is killed for no reason at all. I feel a bit disappointed by knowing his death because he plays a sort of human nature that we all at least have the desire to spy on someone or to take a peek at something we really care about. It’s a very natural curiosity for human nature. Sometimes he is too excessive to be autocratic even though he behaves very cautiously by spying Hamlet to protect her daughter against Hamlet’s madness. Still, does Polonius receive a reasonable explanation so far? No, because he still gets stuck in the trap which Hamlet has set. And he just died with unknown madness from Hamlet. Upon learning this, Polonius is like a mere “thing,” I mean, a kind of thing without human elements for Hamlet. But he owns the human nature within for himself. It’s so weird.
