"Yet in its origins,Hamlet is a revenge story,and these traditions have left some residual savagery in the play.Hamlet is cunning and bloodily resolute throughout.He kills an eavesdropper without a qualm during an interview with his mother and exchanges letters on his way to England with shrewdness.Ultimately he returns to Denmark,sets fire to his uncle's hall slays its courtly inhabitants,and claims his rightful throne from a grateful people.Hamlet written in 1599-1601is unparralled in its philosophical richness.It's ending is truly cathartic,for hamlet dies not as a bloodied avenger ,but as one who affirmed the tragic dignity of the human race," "In" The Complete Works of Shakespeare ,edited by David Bevington.
