Hamlet Act 1 Scene 5?
914557
Basically, Hamlet is visited by his father and learns some of the harsh truths surrounding his father's death.  His father tells Hamlet to avenge his death, but Hamlet being the melancholy fella that he is has to ponder it for ages before he decides what his father is really saying.\n\nThere are a couple of different ways that The Ghost of Hamlet's father can be seen: 1.) he is an actual ghost, back from the dead to visit Hamlet and seek revenge or 2.) he is a physcological image, created in Hamlet's mind to help Hamlet deal with what is going on.  So, essentially, Hamlet is having a dialogue with himself.

Act I, Scene I:\nFirst, while ending a meeting, the witches agree to reconvene “when the battle’s lost and won” (Line 4). Then they warn the audience that “fair is foul, and foul is fair” (Line 12).\nIn Scene II, the nobleman Ross informs King Duncan that a trusted lord, the thane of Cawdor, is a traitor who conspired with the enemy. In other words, the fair Cawdor is foul.\n.......When the witches predict that Macbeth will become king and that Banquo will beget a line of kings, both men react by speaking contradictions reflecting caution and confusion. Banquo says in Act I, Scene III:  \nOftentimes, to win us to our harm, \nThe instruments of darkness tell us truths, \nWin us with honest trifles, to betray's \nIn deepest consequence.\n\nFrom: In Macbeth True Is False and Fair Is Foul\nBy Michael J. Cummings © 2006\nThere are more paradoxes listed in the essay.\nhttp://cummingsstudyguides.net/xMacbeth.html

Well think about it -- what is going on at this point? Hamlet's father has died and his mother is marrying his uncle "hard upon" the heels of his father's death. Now Horatio tells Hamlet that he saw his father's ghost. What does Hamlet do? What state of mind is he in right now? What relationship does he have with Horatio? What questions does he ask Horatio? Please re-read the scene. It's all there in black and white.

Cassio, commanding the night watch during the time of feasting and drinking, takes his orders from Othello, who directs the soldiers to drink with moderation and keep the peace. Cassio and Iago, his second in command, will see to this. Then Othello and Desdemona retire to bed, the first night they will spend together since their marriage.\n\nAlone, Iago makes suggestive remarks about Desdemona to Cassio, which Cassio turns aside; then Iago invites him to drink. Cassio declines, but Iago wheedles and urges him, until Cassio finally relents. Iago spurs Roderigo into a fight with Cassio; others join in and Iago sends Roderigo to ring the alarm bell, waking Othello and bringing him and his armed men to the spot. Othello demands to know who started the fight, and feigning reluctance, Iago names Cassio. Othello relieves Cassio of his post on the spot. Then he and Desdemona return to bed.\n\nIago advises Cassio to ask Desdemona to speak on his behalf with her husband. Cassio agrees, and Iago uses his wife, Emilia, to arrange a private meeting between Cassio and Desdemona.

Indeed he is the opposite of powerless. His famous soliloquy (To be or not to be...) is all about how he is torn over what action to take next against Claudius.\n\nHamlet creates his own destiny by carefully choosing his actions. Examples: hiring the players to perform his play, choosing to not kill Claudius during Confession, stabbing the figure who turned out to be Polonius. Some scholars argue that Hamlet even pretended to be mad rather than actually being crazy.

ANSWER: References after Shakespeare's death suggest that he acted in Adam in As You Like It, Henry the Fourth, Part One, and the Ghost in Hamlet.  He was billed in several college plays, although the bills didn't have the actor/character designations, only player lists.

Juliet's long soliloquy before she drinks the potion focuses on her fears.  She at first calls the nurse, then changes her mind, realizing that she must act alone.  At first she fears that the potion won't work at all and lays a dagger beside her in case it doesn't.  She then fears that Friar Laurence may have lied, and really plans to kill her in order to avoid being punished for performing their marriage. \n\nAfter deciding that the Friar is honest and trustworthy, Juliet fears that she will wake up before Romeo arrives.  This prospect frightens her the most.  She fears strangling to death for lack of air, and then thinks about being in the vault with the bones of her ancestors, including Tybalt's recently dead body.  In horrible images, she imagines herself playing with the bones of her dead relatives and even smashing her own brains out with one of the bones.  As she imagines Tybalt's ghost seeking out Romeo, his murderer, she drinks the potion as a toast to Romeo.\n\nEven though Juliet's worst fear is that she will wake up too soon, it is ironic that this is the one thing that could have saved both their lives.\n\nJuliet is tragically alone in this scene, expressing her deepest fears in total isolation.  She shows her bravery as proof of her intense love for Romeo. In fact, it is her love for him which allows her to overcome her worst fears.

It's been a while since I analyzed that. I'll just have to go off the cuff here. Darkness seems to be a common setting for the Capulet party at night, the sneaking around between major scenes, going to see the Friar, inside the family tombs, etc. Darkness itself does not necessarily mean evil in this play, but more of the fact that due to miscommunication and violent grudges, people keep acting while being left mentally "in the dark" as to what other options would be available. Darkness may also serve as a sort of foreshadowing of a sad and dark ending to this tragedy.

Too vague. I read Hamlet but I don't know what you want specifically.
