The Performative Utterance In Hamlet

Hamlet could also be looked at as a play about a man who can't make what he finds in his mind real

Hamlet is said to be ran by three forces, locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary

Locutionary: The ability for language to deliver a message

Illocutionary: What it done in being said

Perlocutionary: What is achieved in being said

Shakespeare's character's evolve from their own speech and actions

Hamlet shows off "first player's emotions", in which he shows off his emotions from certain actions or his own actions usually with the power of performative mode
