1. Hamlet's speech is a soliloquy because he confesses how he feels about what is happening alone out loud.

2.Hamlet despises his mother for getting remarried to his uncle Claudius. Hamlet feels like she hasn't mourned his father's death long enough and is getting married too soon. Also, Claudius tells Hamlet that he needs to stop mourning his father and that he needs to realize that Claudius is his new father. Hamlet is disturbed about what is all happening. It shows that Hamlet has to hold in all of his emotions and "break, [His] heart, for [He] must hold [His] tongue."
