Hamlet Hamlet is Shakespeare's longest play and among the most powerful tragedies in the English language.

Believed to have been written between 1599 and 1601.

summary The play, set in the Kingdom of Denmark,

recounts how Prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius for murdering the old King Hamlet, Claudius's brother and Prince Hamlet's father, and then succeeding to the throne and marrying Gertrude, the King Hamlet's widow and mother of Prince Hamlet.

The play vividly portrays real and feigned madness—from overwhelming grief to seething rage—and explores themes of treachery, revenge, and moral corruption.

Hamlet soliloquy

O that is too sullied flesh would melt

Thaw and resolve into dew

His canon ‘gainst self-slaughter oh god! God

How weary, stale , flat and unprofitable

Seem to me all the uses of this world!

Fie on’t , ah fie, ‘tis and unweeded garden

That grows to seed, things rank and gross in nature

Possess it marely . That it should come to this!

Hyperion and satyr , so loving to my mother

Hamlet

That he might not beteem the winds of heaven

Visit her face too roughly . Heaven and Earth

Must I remember? Why she would hang on him

As if increase of appetite had grown

By what it fed on ; and yet within a month.

Hamlet soliloquy

Let me not think on’t---frailty thy name is women

A little month, or ere those shoes were old

With which she follow’d my poor fathers body

Hamlet soliloquy

Like Niobe all tears---Why, she

O god this, a beast that want discourse of reason

Would have mourn’d longer---married with my uncle,

My fathers brother---but no more like my father

Hamlet soliloquy

Let me not think on’t---frailty thy name is women

A little month, or ere those shoes were old

With which she follow’d my poor fathers body

Hamlet soliloquy

Than I to hercules:with in a month

Ere yet the salt of most un righteous tears

Had left the flushing in her galled eyes,

She married---o most wicked speed! To post

Hamlet soliloquy

With such dexterity to incestuous sheets!

It is not, nor it can not come to good

But break my heart, for I must hold my tongue
