1. Why I chose this topic
Shakespeare was and still is one of the biggest playwrights in the English Literature and in my opinion the best one in the Renaissance, because I think, he has a unique style of writing.

Hamlet and Macbeth are my favorites, so I wanted to investigate and analyze them more, so I chose Hamlet to write a research paper about it.
