Hamlet is a tragedy that scholars suggest William Shakespeare wrote sometime between 1599 and 1601. Hamlet takes place in Denmark. It is a story about Prince Hamlet, who takes revenge on his uncle Claudius because his uncle murdered his father-King Hamlet. After King Hamlets assassination, Claudius marries Prince Hamlets mother-Queen Gertrude-so he can take the royal throne and become King Claudius. Hamlet is a popular and influential tale that makes one consider life and death, power and justice, as well as action and uncertainty. These and other issues raised in the play are, arguably, the reasons Hamlet is still studied some four-hundred years after Shakespeare wrote, this, his longest play.
