Something about Hamlet remains elusive. Interpretations abound. The question remains: what is Hamlet really about? And yet, the key to the play's meaning lies close at hand in one line, a reference most often misunderstood, in Act 1.


Addressing those elements of the play that seem never quite fully or satisfactorily explained, HAMLET In Defense of the Faith demonstrates that the play is an allegory, and that it does, in fact, have one clear and discernible message. The message, hinted at enough to be conceivable, is veiled enough to have prevented a charge of treason against Shakespeare when the play was produced on the London stage.
