The conflict between the will and feelings of an individual versus the will and feelings of the majority is one of the main conflicts in the play Hamlet and is experienced by many of the characters . Characters such as Hamlet, Ophelia, Laertes, and Fortinbras are shown as opposites or having mixed feelings with most people in their society. The main conflict in the play is between Hamlet and King Claudius, which in a way symbolizes Hamlet's conflict with the society around him. King Claudius, as the new ruler of Denmark, is the man who sets the rules and the one after whom the patterns of aristocratic society. Since becoming king and marrying Hamlet's mother, Gertrude, Claudius becomes the person admired by the rest of the people and the person whose actions show the society around him how to live their lifestyle and what is accepted and what is not he is accepted into his kingdom. Meanwhile, Hamlet, who is still mourning the death of his father, while the rest of the people celebrate Claudius' wedding and coronation, remains in the shadows. Hamlet does not participate in the festivities and celebrations because in his eyes quick marriage and coronation are inappropriate at the time of mourning the death of his father. This is the first aspect the reader sees of Hamlet acting opposite to what society is doing. Throughout the entire half of the play Hamlet also goes against society, but not society itself, but against the rules and values ​​established by society. Hamlet begins to act like a madman and says things that offend everyone around him. But not only his remarks and actions demonstrate his opposition to the society around him. When Hamlet wants to kill Claudius and avenge his father, he does not seek the sole act of revenge, but pursues his goal as one of rightness, truthfulness, and honor. Hamlet has a different set of values, although he may want to achieve the same goal as some of the other characters in the play, his values ​​prevent him from taking action until he feels confident enough that what he is doing is right. This is why Hamlet misses the opportunity to kill Claudius during the confession, even though he has a clear vision of his life. Hamlet's values, which at first prevent him from killing Claudius in the chapel, ironically lead him to kill Polonius..
