Hamlet explains to Horatio why the latter is his best friend, and in the process reveals his sense of himself by contrast, a man who is 'passion's slave'.

This is a series of fifteen key moments in Hamlet via the iPad app ShowMe. These moments are interesting and important ones, though not the most obvious, and the series avoids such crucial speeches as the soliloquies; for more on those, and much more, go here for our general Hamlet resources.
