Plot

Pride and Prejudice and Hamlet are conventional narratives that follow a chronological sequence. One of the most important elements of a narrative is the climax or turning point. The turning point in Pride and Prejudice is Elizabeth's realization that she cares deeply for Darcy and that she is just as prejudice as the people she looks down upon: "until then I never knew myself." The climax in Hamlet is when Hamlet 100% believes Claudius killed Hamlet Sr. after noticing his guilty disposition during the play "Murder of Gonzago".
Their plots differ, however, in terms of foreshadowing and introduction of characters. Shakespeare uses foreshadowing to hint at events that might happen later on in the play. Marcellus's quote: "something is rotten in the state of Denmark" foreshadows the death of an important character or multiple characters. Another example is the acting troupe performing "Murder of Gonzago" which foreshadows Hamlet finally getting revenge on Claudius. Pride and Prejudice isn't conventional in regards to introducing characters. Jane Austen prefers to use gossip to allow the reader to familiarize with each character before actually being introduced. This way, the reader's opinion is shaped by rumors that appear true until proven false by each character's actions.
