Hamlet ( Folger Library Shakespeare)

0/5 ( ratings)

Hamlet is Shakespeare's most popular, and most puzzling, play. It follows the form of a "revenge tragedy," in which the hero, Hamlet, seeks vengeance against his father's murderer, his uncle Claudius, now the king of Denmark. Much of its fascination, however, lies in its uncertainties.
Among What is a ghost, Hamlet's father who pleads for justice, a tempter, an angel? Is Hamlet as mad as he pretends to be? Once he found out that Claudius was a murderer, why didn't he do something? Is his mother, Gertrude, faithful to her husband or is she complicit in his murder?

Language: English

Pages: 243

Format: Kindle Edition

Release: January 01, 1601
