Summary "Αμλέτος" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written in the late 16th century. The play centers around its titular character, Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark, who grapples with complex themes of revenge, madness, and the nature of existence following the murder of his father. It explores deep human emotions and moral dilemmas faced by Hamlet as he confronts both personal and societal corruption, ultimately leading to catastrophic consequences. At the start of the play, we are introduced to the troubled world of Hamlet after the death of his father, King Hamlet. Hamlet is thrown into a whirlwind of grief and disillusionment as he witnesses his mother's hasty remarriage to his uncle Claudius, the new king. The opening scenes introduce the themes of betrayal and loss, setting the stage for Hamlet's internal struggle as he receives a ghostly visitation from his father, who reveals the truth about his murder and beckons Hamlet to seek revenge. As Hamlet grapples with his emotions and the implications of this new knowledge, we witness his transformation from a grief-stricken son to a man burdened with the weight of duty, reinforcing the tragic elements of his character.
