Hamlet is the protagonist of William Shakespeare's

Hamlet is the protagonist of William Shakespeare's “Hamlet, Prince of Denmark”. In my opinion, this is a young man full of vitality, a Prince whom the people love, who has a friend Horace and beloved Ophelia, but in his life there was a misfortune that turned his life and views.

   Hamlet’s father died suddenly, and his mother soon married Hamlet’s uncle Claudius. The main character is tormented by doubts that the death of his father happened by accident, from a snakebite, and he is trying to find confirmation of this. Hamlet loses interest in life and in the beloved, although he loves her. He becomes obsessed with the idea of ​​finding out the truth. To do this, he meets with the Ghost of his father, who says that he was killed by his brother, poisoned him with poison while he was sleeping in the garden. But the words of the Ghost are not enough for him, Hamlet is looking for evidence. He wants to see the King’s attitude towards his brother’s death from the side.

    Having set up, the play-trap in the theater, Hamlet was convinced that it was Claudius who killed his father. But he does not want to just kill the offender, he wants the King to repent of his crime, to torment himself with pangs of conscience.

   Obsessed with a thirst for revenge, hiding under the guise of madness, Hamlet accidentally killed an innocent man, adviser Polonius, the father of his beloved, thereby destroying her life. And although the Prince says that Polonius himself is to blame for his death, he still considers it his sin.

    In my opinion, Hamlet is smart, brave, moderately cunning, desperate, not tolerating lies, evil and treachery, a man who seeks truth and justice. Yes, justice triumphed, and the king died at the hands of Hamlet as a result of his own intrigues. True, for this justice, our hero had to pay a high price - this is the death of Ophelia, his mother and the price of his own life, which for him, after the death of his beloveds, no longer mattered.
