On a dark night, a ghost walks in
the premises of the Elsinore Castle in Denmark. It was first discovered by a
pair of watchmen, Barnardo and Francisco. The both of them told Horatio about
the ghost. Horatio told them that it was a bad thing. He said, “The ghost is
definitely something to worry about. In the high and mighty Roman Empire just
before the emperor Julius Caesar was assassinated, corpses roses out of their
graves and ran through the streets of Rome, speaking gibberish. There were
shooting stars and blood mixed in the morning dew and threatening signs from
the sun’s face. The moon which controls the tides were so eclipsed it almost
went completely out”. The ghost then appeared to Horatio which proves
everything. He told it to Hamlet. Hamlet then walks to see it his own eyes.
That ghost was look like his father. When he saw the ghost, it speaks to him.
The ghost told him that he was murdered by none other than Claudius.
Prince Hamlet then devotes himself
to avenge for his father. But then because of his thoughtful nature, he delays
his revenge entering to a deep melancholy and apparent craziness.
Polonius, the lord of chamberlain,
suggests that Hamlet maybe obsessed to his one and only daughter Ophelia. That
time also is the departure of the son of Polonius, which is Laertes. Laetes is
going to France to study.
When Laertes went to France, Italy
where he met the couples from Messina named Hero and Claudio, and, Beatrice and
Benedick. They were newly-wed couple. Laertes noticed how Benedick mocks
Beatrice. They were like children.
Laertes is having a good time with
the two couples when a messenger went to him and told him that his sister and
father had died.
Due to his anger he went back to
Denmark. He blamed Hamlet for the death of his father and sister. Laertes
agreed then in the plan of Claudius and has a battle with Hamlet. Unfortunately
Laertes died the same with Claudius, Gertrude and Hamlet. OnlyHoratio live and
told the tragedy of Hamlet to the Prince of Norway, Fontribas.
Prince Fontribas returned to Norway
with the story. But too much concentration of Norway to Denmark they haven’t
notice the army of Scotland which is led by Thane of Glamis, Macbeth.
The Scotland army defeated the
Norway. Macbeth returned to Scotland together with his friend Banquo. In their
way home they met three witches. This witches told them about a prophecy.
When the three witches are done
with their task with Macbeth, they flew away. One of the three witches is the
godess of witchcraft, Hecate. Hecate went to Athens to watch the marriage of
three couples here. It was the wedding of Theseus to Hippolyta, Lysander to
Hermia and Demetrius to Helena.
In the wedding there was the king
of fairies Oberon. After the wedding, Oberon went straight to a strange island
where he had to go to meet a sorcerer. This sorcerer was named Prospero. He
asked Oberon to spill some secrets of how he could make a tempest.
When Oberon thought him, Prospero
used it to make a tempest that could make a ship to wreck in the sea. That ship
contains the king of Naples, Alonso and his son, Ferdinand.
But Prospero doesn’t know that
there were two ships sailing on that sea. The other ship contains the family of
Egeon. Egeon with his wife Emilia and his twin (both named Antipholus) were
separated. One of the Antipholus grew up in Ephesus and the other one grew up
in Syracuse.
Antipholus of Syracuse became a
traveler. He travels all over the world just to find his twin brother. One time
when he is traveling he stopped in the place of Verona. There he found the
statue of Romeo Montague and Juliet Montague. This tragic love story is about
two people who were unlucky of their households.
After some traveling Antipholus of
Syracuse then found his long lost brother which is living in the Ephesus.
Antipholus of Syracuse found her love with the sister of her sister-in-law,
Luciana.
Now then the family lives together
and they lived happily ever after.
