Hamlet
Author: W. Shakespeare

The main theme of the play is revenge, betrayal, and inner conflict. Prince Hamlet of Denmark learns that his father has been murdered and seeks to take revenge on his uncle. However, due to his indecisiveness and deep contemplation, he is unable to act quickly.

The play highlights philosophical questions such as the inner world of a person, the meaning of life, and death. Hamlet’s famous “to be or not to be” reflects his psychological state. As the events unfold, intrigues in the royal court intensify, leading to many tragic incidents. In the end, almost all the main characters lose their lives.
