Hamlet by William Shakespeare

"Hamlet" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written between 1599 and 1601. Set in Denmark, the play follows Prince Hamlet as he seeks revenge against his uncle Claudius, who murdered Hamlet's father to seize the throne and marry Hamlet's mother. When a ghost reveals the truth of his father's death, Hamlet must navigate madness, both feigned and real, while plotting vengeance. Considered one of the most powerful tragedies in English literature, this tale of corruption and revenge remains endlessly influential. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
