Hamlet contains several tragic aspects. Several fatalities in the plot can be classified as sad events, including the death of the protagonist. Hamlet is also known as a revenge tragedy. When the play was composed and promoted in the Elizabethan and Jacobean eras, it was very popular. In this subgenre, the protagonist wants vengeance. As the plot progresses, this desire can either stay in the hero's head or become a reality. The drama vividly depicts the concept of vengeance. Hamlet intends to assassinate Claudius for the murder of his father, but instead kills more people and dies. Hamlet is a problematic play since it deals with the subject of madness. Hamlet pretends to be insane in order to fool the audience into thinking he is harmless. Hamlet, on the other hand, is losing touch with reality as he investigates his father's death. As he plots his vengeance, he begins to act strangely and without thought. It turns out that his mind is concealing troubles that are far more serious than he realises.
