«Amleto» is the tragedy by William Shakespeare with a translation by Eugenio Montale, published by Oscar Mondadori in paperback (304 pages, in Italian).
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, returns to his court after his father's death and suspects that his uncle, the new king, is behind the crime. Caught between doubt and the desire for revenge, he feigns madness while devising a plot to uncover the truth. The work explores conscience, betrayal, power, and the boundary between sanity and delirium.
It belongs to the Oscar classici collection (no. 129). It includes a piece by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, the original text on the facing page, and an introductory essay by Anna Luisa Zazo.
It is a common reading in school literature programs, useful for students approaching classical theater and Shakespeare.
William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" or simply "the Bard". His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, 3 long narrative poems and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Shakespeare remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted.
