Hamlet, written by William Shakespeare around 1599–1601, is a tragedy set in the Kingdom of Denmark, exploring themes of revenge, madness, morality, and existential uncertainty. The play follows Prince Hamlet, who is tasked by his father’s ghost to avenge his murder by Claudius, Hamlet’s uncle, who has usurped the throne and married Queen Gertrude. As Hamlet feigns madness to uncover the truth, his internal struggle with action and inaction leads to a web of deception, betrayal, and death. Drawing on Elizabethan concerns about succession and moral decay, Hamlet is renowned for its complex characters, philosophical depth, and iconic soliloquies, such as “To be, or not to be,” cementing its status as one of Shakespeare’s greatest works.
