Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, a tragedy by William Shakespeare, one of his most well-known and oft-quoted plays.Written between 1598 and the summer of 1602, this masterpiece of Elizabethan theatre first appeared in print in 1603 in a version known as the Bad Quarto, a pirated version with no authority. The authorised Second Quarto (Q2) followed shortly after the first, while a slightly altered and reduced version was published in the First Folio of Shakespeare's complete works. See Folios and Quartos (Shakespeare). The text in modern editions is a compromise between the Second Quarto text and the Folio text.
The play concerns the dilemma of prince Hamlet, whose father, King of Denmark, has recently died. Hamlet's uncle Claudius has taken the throne of Denmark following the King's death, and immediately married the widowed Queen of Denmark.
Hamlet expresses a profound dissatisfaction with the accession of the mediocre Claudius and particularly with his mother's hasty remarriage. Hamlet soon encounters the ghost of his dead father, who informs him that he was murdered by Claudius, and urges Hamlet to avenge him.
In theatre, Hamlet is possibly the most often produced work, in almost every western country, and it is considered a crucial test for mature actors; notably Hamlet's soliloquy (Act Three, Scene One), the most popular passage of this play, is so well known that it has become a stumbling-block for many modern actors. Depressed by events surrounding his uncle's apparent murder, he seems to contemplate suicide, then waxes philosophical on why people choose to live on despite the hardships of life.
The core of the plot in Hamlet, the disinherited Prince's plan of revenging his father's murder by feigning madness, is found in the Gesta Danorum by the Danish historian Saxo Grammaticus. A more immediate source, however, is the Histoires Tragiques de François de Belleforest (Paris, 1570). Belleforest was dependent on Saxo. However, an earlier version of Hamlet definitely existed, and a brief line from it was quoted by the pamphleteer and playwright Thomas Nashe. This earlier play has not survived, but the highly unusual structure of Shakespeare's play suggests that he at least began by revising an earlier play. Thomas Kyd has most frequently been suggested as the author of this lost Ur-Hamlet, but some scholars have suggested that Shakespeare himself might have written it at the beginning of his career.

A hamlet is also a small inhabited place. While it is generally an unofficial term, in New York State and the Northwest Territories there are officially-designated municipalities, generally smaller than villages, classified as hamlets.
In the United Kingdom a hamlet is a small village that may or may not have its own church, but that does not form a parish in its own right.
There is also a city in the State of North Carolina named Hamlet: see Hamlet, North Carolina.
Disney's Lion King and Hamlet share many parallels, notably the murder of a king by his brother.

Hamlet was Kenneth Branagh's chance to direct and star in the Shakespearean classic. With 18th or 19th century costuming and furnishings, the play suffered from some loss of realism. But purists got the full text of the play, with all the psychological and philosophical ruminations and political machinations of the original delivered rapid-fire.See also: Hamlet -- the original play, Hamlet (1990 movie)
