Revenge
Hamlet gears up to be a traditional bloody revenge play – and then it stops. The bulk of the play deals not with Hamlet’s ultimately successful vengeance on his father’s murderer, but on Hamlet’s inner struggle to take action. The play’s conclusion has a typical amount of gore, but Hamlet is certainly not a typical revenge tragedy. Hamlet talks about revenge as a worthy goal, but his mysterious delay hints that he may actually feel otherwise. The validity – or the usefulness – of revenge itself is thrown into question by the play.
