Hamlet
In 5.2 of Hamlet, Hamlet tells Horatio what really happened on the way to England. (He stole the letters that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were taking to the King of England, which instructed the king to kill Hamlet. Hamlet, our hero, immediately wrote out several new letters and sealed them using his signet. The new letters ordered that the two men accompanying him should be put to death). This shows major growth and maturity. In the beginning, Hamlet was a man of pure thought, but this did not work. He then transformed into a man of pure action, which failed as well. But by the end Hamlet metamorphosed (or metamorphoses or will metamorphose… pick a tense… this book is one big circle) into a nice blend of action and thought. He is now a man of “thoaction”. The pure thought Hamlet is exemplified in the scenes when Hamlet is contemplating suicide and also when Claudius is praying, and Hamlet has the opportunity to kill him; but Hamlet thinks his way out of situations-- blaming religion, bad timing, etc., rather than himself. Then Hamlet mutates into pure action Hamlet. He rashly and recklessly murders Polonius. This was stupid because not only did he kill the wrong guy, but also managed make Laertes fumingly irate.
