Hamlet, Prinz von Dännemark

by William Shakespeare

Translated by Christoph Martin Wieland

"Hamlet, Prinz von Dännemark" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written between 1599 and 1601. Prince Hamlet must avenge his father's murder after a ghost reveals that his uncle Claudius killed the king to seize the throne and marry Hamlet's mother. As Hamlet feigns madness to investigate the truth, he navigates a treacherous court filled with spies, forbidden love, and political intrigue. Considered one of the most powerful tragedies in the English language, this tale of revenge and moral complexity remains endlessly influential.
