Conflicting Value Systems in Everyman, Dr Faustus and Hamlet Conflicting value systems are always present, especially when death is involved. So in the tragedies of Everyman, Doctor Faustus and Hamlet there are many conflicts to deal with. These include personal moral conflicts with individual characters in the work and also opposing values ​​between different characters in the work. Conflicting value systems can also extend to how audiences interpret the work, beliefs, and culture of the time. In Everyman, we can see that the character “Everyman” faces a moral dilemma as God summons Everyman by offering Death to take him as his own. Own. This creates conflicting value systems. One is whether Every man must go with Death. O miserable brigand, where will I flee to escape this infinite pain? (l.171-2) Here every man wonders whether he should go with Death or not. He finds it very difficult to make a decision in his mind. The play Everyman is about deciding whether he will make the right decisions. The other question concerns Everyman's friends. Should they go with Everyman? This is really important. The promise is a duty; but if I were to undertake such a journey, I well know, it would have to be to my sorrow; it also makes me scared. (l.248-9) Here Fellowship refuses to take part in Everymans journey, even though he feels ashamed and weak in doing so. Brothers, Goods, Knowledge, Confession, Beauty, Strength, Discretion, and Five-Wits also refuse to go with Everyman, after facing a personal moral conflict. The entire Everyman consists of dramatic conflict and abstract argument as Everyman fights for his soul. This is called Psychomachia. This means that in the middle of the card, what to do for the best, is when society often causes conflict by taking different points of view on the issue. Tragedy, however, does not mean that evil always wins. Sometimes good wins over evil. Bibliography Anonymous Everyman in ed.
