"Shakespeare's masterpiece in tragedy is one of his four great tragedies. In terms of ideological content, it has reached unprecedented depth and breadth, profoundly revealing the evil and essential characteristics of the late feudal society. Based on ancient Danish mythology dating back to 1200 AD, it tells the story of a Danish prince who feigns madness in order to avenge his uncle who killed his father, married his mother, and usurped the throne. After enduring torture, he finally seeks revenge. The entire story of Hamlet is imbued with the spirit of Shakespeare's time, and is the most profound expression of Shakespeare's humanism and critical spirit of real life.
