Hamlet was not a real person, and he was never king of Denmark. The play Hamlet by Shakespeare is thought to be based on a story written by Saxo Grammaticus in 1200 AD called Vita Amlethi.Older written and oral traditions influenced Saxo's work.The play itself is set in a contemporary time, so the time of theevents in the play would be around 1600.
saxo is good, saxo is reliable..
Hamlet has no wife. His love interest in the play was Ophelia and perhaps his mother;), but no marriage was held
Hamlet is Shakespeare's take on the story of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, originally told by Saxo Grammaticus, translated to French by Belleforest and believed to be the basis of an earlier play, probably by Thomas Kyd.
depends on which MG and which SAXO???
All saxo and 106 gearboxes are interchangable.
Belleforest's Histoires Tragiques (1570) contains an account of the Hamlet legend. This in turn is drawn from Saxo Grammaticus's Gesta Danorum from the early 13th century. Shakespeare, however, may not have based his story on Belleforest, but on an earlier play of Hamlet which has since been lost (which scholars call the Ur-Hamlet). Some people say that the German play Der Bestrafte Brudermord dated 1710 is a translation of the Ur-Hamlet.Belleforest inaccurately documented his source, calling Saxo Gramatticus's book Histoire des Danois or Historica Danica. Some people have used a patchwork of these inaccurate names to identify Saxo's work.
