Arguably Shakespeare's greatest play and certainly his most performed, 'Hamlet' tells the impassioned story of the grief-stricken Danish prince's revenge against his uncle, Claudius, for murdering his father in order to seize his throne and marry Hamlet's mother. A thought-provoking study of the human psyche and familial relationships, the play has been analysed by audiences, critics and psychologists (including Sigmund Freud) alike ever since its first performance at the beginning of the 17th century. This edition in the 'Arcturus Classic' series is based on the First Folio and includes an extensive introduction that examines the origins of the work, the plot and the characters as well as notes on the text, a glossary and a timeline of Shakespeare's life and work.
