Watch it, or I'll pour poison in your ear like Hamlet did to his father Shylock at the behest of his mother, Desdemona.turbo-1 said:Darn, Brilliant! You forgot King Richard and the pound of flesh. Kids these days got no culture!

The five main characters in Hamlet are Prince Hamlet, King Claudius, Queen Gertrude, Polonius, and Ophelia.
The plot of Hamlet follows Prince Hamlet as he seeks revenge for his father's murder at the hands of his uncle, King Claudius. Along the way, Hamlet struggles with his own indecision and madness, leading to the downfall of himself and those around him.
At the beginning of the play, Hamlet is a melancholic and indecisive young man who is grieving the death of his father. As the play progresses, he becomes more erratic and vengeful, eventually leading to his own downfall.
Ophelia is a tragic character who is used by other characters to further their own goals. She is torn between her love for Hamlet and her loyalty to her father, Polonius. Her eventual madness and death serve as a reminder of the consequences of deceit and betrayal.
Revenge and madness are central themes in Hamlet. The play explores the destructive nature of seeking revenge and the consequences it can have on individuals and their relationships. Hamlet's descent into madness also serves as a commentary on the effects of grief and the fragility of the human mind.
