Overview

Taking place in Denmark, this play tells how Prince Hamlet carries out his revenge on his uncle Claudio, who had killed his father, the king, married his mother, Gertrudis, and flaunted the Danish crown. This work is vividly traced around madness and explores issues such as treason, revenge, incest and moral corruption. Situada en Dinamarca, esta obra teatral relata cómo el príncipe Hamlet lleva a cabo su venganza sobre su tío Claudio, quien asesinase a su padre, el rey, casándose con su madre, Gertrudis, y ostentando la corona de Dinamarca. La obra se traza vívidamente alrededor de la locura (tanto real como fingida) y en ella se percibe el transcurso en el ánimo del príncipe del profundo dolor a la desmesurada ira. Además explora los temas de la traición, la venganza, el incesto y la corrupción moral.

Reviews
