Hamlet by William Shakespeare

"Hamlet" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written between 1599 and 1601. Prince Hamlet of Denmark seeks revenge against his uncle Claudius, who murdered Hamlet's father to seize the throne and marry his mother. When his father's ghost reveals the truth of his death, Hamlet vows vengeance but struggles with uncertainty and feigned madness. As he plots to expose his uncle's guilt through a play, tensions mount in the Danish court. Considered one of the most powerful tragedies in English literature, this tale of murder, betrayal, and revenge remains endlessly compelling. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
