Detailed explanation-1: -Prince Hamlet is the title character and protagonist of William Shakespeare’s tragedy Hamlet (1599–1601). He is the Prince of Denmark, nephew to the usurping Claudius, and son of King Hamlet, the previous King of Denmark.
Detailed explanation-2: -He is not only doomed to struggle against Claudius, he must also struggle against himself. Hamlet is deeply contemplative and because of this, he is positioned as both protagonist and also factors in somewhat as an antagonist.
Detailed explanation-3: -The protagonist of the tragedy, Hamlet is a beloved prince and a thoughtful, melancholy young man. Distraught by his father’s death, Hamlet is only made more depressed by his uncle Claudius’ succession to the throne and his subsequent marriage to his mother.
Detailed explanation-4: -In short, Hamlet is a self-centred, entitled, manipulative, callous bully. However, he is also intensely charismatic, so much so that he has persuaded the world to share his Hamlet-centric view. That is what makes him a villain of genius.
