Hamlet is the most important work of Shakespeare, a great English Renaissance poet and playwright. /kloc-In the 9th century, Russian critic Linsky called Shakespeare "the king of dramatic poets", while Hamlet was Shakespeare's "the brightest Jin Gangzuan in the brilliant crown".

The story took place in Elsinore, the capital of Denmark, in the13rd century. The king of Denmark died suddenly while taking a nap in the garden. His younger brother Claudius succeeded to the throne and married his former princess. Hamlet, the son of the former king, had doubts about his father's death, was excessively depressed and worried all day. He followed the advice of his friends, met the ghost of his father who appeared in the castle in the middle of the night, and finally learned that Claudius and his mother were plotting to kill his father. In order to obtain evidence, he specially invited a group of actors to perform a very similar murder drama in the palace, showing the story of his father being killed at that time. Hamlet understood the truth as soon as he saw the reaction of his mother and uncle.

Minister Polonius has a daughter named Ophelia. She is outstanding in appearance, beautiful and pure, and madly in love with Hamlet. However, Hamlet was deliberately indifferent to Ophelia because his father's revenge was not reported. The cunning Claudius also realized Hamlet's sincerity, so he played tricks. Hamlet mistakenly stabbed Polonius who was hiding behind the scenes and eavesdropping on his conversation with Ophelia, because he miscalculated. Ophelia couldn't bear the shock of losing her lover and father, and she had a nervous breakdown. She fell into the water and died. Polonius's son came back from abroad and vowed to avenge his father and sister. Claudius told him to fight Hamlet and put poison on his sword.
