Hamlet is a tragedy written by literary genius William Shakespeare, although he has culminated remarkable plays throughout his life but Hamlet is considered to be the masterpiece. This is why; it has become mandatory in literature courses.

Best idea is to work on the famous quotations from the novel hamlet such as; “To be or not to be is the question”. You can base your hamlet coursework on the them e of this quote but first it is crucial that you understand the concept behind the quote and for this you will have to read the whole play. Here is a rough description about the quote:

There are three important points depicted in the quote that are, ethical principles, psychological behavior and philosophical perspective. You can search and find out what these three points relationship with, the quote.

• Another idea is to write on the perspective of the author while writing the play, what was the author’s message that he wanted to convey to the world in your point of view.
• The basic themes of the play are:

• Wishes and desires
• Retaliation
• Intrigues
• Incest
• Jealousy
• Love

You can choose any one of the above told theme and use it as the topic for hamlet coursework.

• Every character in the play was associated with some kind of tragedy; you can write on a single term, “the tragedy” and discuss all of the tragic incidents that happened in the play.
