In Hamlet, to what degree is the ambiguity between heroism and villainy explored? Consider protagonists for your response.

I think that Hamlet is the good guy but by putting off doing anything he does bad things, but I don't know if that makes him the villain?

Avoid using the slang term “the good guy” when your directions clearly want you to deal with the protagonist(s).

Hamlet is definitely not the villain; Claudius is. Do you understand why?

Look up the words hero, villain, protagonist, and antagonist at http://www.onelook.com and be crystal clear about both terms before tackling your assignment.
