Near to Elsinorom, a royal palace of Denmark, soldiers some times saw the phantom surprisingly similar to recently lost king. News reaches the Danish prince Hamlet and he decides to see a phantom. The meeting with it of Hamlet horrifies also confusion — the phantom has told to it that its uncle, the present king, has killed him, and bequeaths to the son revenge. Hamlet is amazed and lost so that it accept for the madman. He tries to receive incontestable proofs of fault Claudia. The king, guessing that «Hamlet has not gone mad, and pretends to be with any purpose», sends to it its friends — Rozenkrantsa and Gildensterna that they for corresponding compensation have found out that actually on mind at Hamlet. But Hamlet, having understood the true purpose of their arrival, anything it does not open, answering with senseless monologues their inquiries. At this time in Elsinor there comes troupe of vagrant actors. Hamlet asks them to put the play «Murder of Gonzago», having inserted there some lines of the composition. Thus «Murder of Gonzago» will represent murder of the former king according to a phantom. The king watches closely for действем plays and leaves after in Hamlet play there is a murder. After that Hamlet goes to rooms of the queen, before conversation casually kills the royal adviser who has hidden behind a carpet — Polonium. Further he talks to mother, reproaching her that having married Claudia, it has offended the former husband. The king understanding that Hamlet is dangerous to it, sends it to England that him at once after arrival executed. The prince escapes from this fate and comes back to Denmark. The uncle resorts to already tested reception — to poison. Hamlet dies, before death killing the king. The Danish throne passes to Fortinbrasu, the Norwegian governor.

I consider this book as a masterpiece of the English literature. Shakespeare has very precisely told about such feeling as revenge. Shakespeare has shown that feeling to sweep there are even more strongly feelings of love, and in difference from love brings only a pain and sufferings. I all recommend to read this book, and the main thing is good to think over it!
