The tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark / by William Shakespeare ; edited by Barbara A. Mowat and Paul Werstine.
What is this Ghost that appears to Hamlet? Is it Hamlet's murdered father returned from the everlasting fire to demand justice upon his murderer? Is it a "goblin damned" - that is, a demon bent on claiming Hamlet's soul by tempting him to assassinate his king? Or is the Ghost "a spirit of health," an angelic messenger revealing to Hamlet that the young man's mission in life is to cleanse the kingdom of Denmark of its corrupt king? And what happens to Hamlet after the Ghost commands that the throne of Denmark be cleansed?--
