Rosencrantz And Guildenstern King Of Denmark

writing ever done by William Shakespeare, Hamlet,
is a classic example of a tragedy. In all

falls on his sword, and like them Hamlet dies by
getting cut with a poison tipped sword. The theme

appearance versus reality. Things within the play
appear to be true and honest but in reality are
polluted with evil. ...
