interesting assertion. any specific moments you're referring to? or are you referring to hamlet's characterization on the whole?

Not 828, but pretty much every line Hamlet has in the play has a self-conscious double meaning that would indicate that he can indeed identify fantasy from reality. The scene where he's giving the actors advice, for instance, would be a good indication of how clearly he sees the artifice in everyday action.
