In "Hamlet," similes are used to enhance the emotional depth and imagery of the play. For instance, Hamlet compares his grief to a "sorrow's heavy burden" to illustrate the weight of his despair after his father's death. Such comparisons allow the audience to better understand the characters' inner turmoil and the intensity of their experiences. Overall, similes contribute to the rich, poetic language that characterizes Shakespeare's work.

Hamlet Sr (Old Hamlet) was the King of Denmark and Hamlet Jr's (Hamlet) father. Hamlet Sr dies at the beginning of the play and the story follows Hamlet Jr as the main character. Hope this helps, Have a great day.
Dulwich Hamlet? :D
'Hamlet' is most basically a revenge play.
Who says Hamlet is 17? The gravedigger says (V,i, 150) that he started work as a gravedigger "the very day young Hamlet was born", and later (V,i, 164) "I have been sexton here, man and boy, thirty years". Which means of course that Hamlet is 30.
