Summary of Hamlet

Summary of Hamlet

Hamlet is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, accepted to have been in writing between 1599 and 1601. The play, set in Denmark, explains how Prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius for killing the vintage King Hamlet, Claudius's own male sibling and Prince Hamlet's dad, and then doing well to the throne and marrying Gertrude, the King Hamlet's widow and mother of Prince Hamlet. The play vividly journals the course of genuine and pretended madness—from swamping sorrow to seething rage—and discovers topics of deceit, revenge, incest, and lesson corruption (Innes and Stewart, 2001).
