Detailed explanation-1: -Hamlet’s real cause for rage is that he has done nothing to revenge his father’s killing.
Detailed explanation-2: -Despite the evidence that Hamlet actually is mad, we also see substantial evidence that he is just pretending. The most obvious evidence is that Hamlet himself says he is going to pretend to be mad, suggesting he is at least sane enough to be able to tell the difference between disordered and rational behavior.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is a play driven by a protagonist who spends most of the play contemplating revenge rather than exacting it. Hamlet’s inability to avenge the murder of his father drives the plot and leads to the deaths of most of the major characters, including Polonius, Laertes, Ophelia, Gertrude, and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hamlet is appalled at the revelation that his father has been murdered, and the ghost tells him that as he slept in his garden, a villain poured poison into his ear-the very villain who now wears his crown, Claudius. Hamlet’s worst fears about his uncle are confirmed.
