Summary/Abstract: Many people may ask, what can you say today that is new about Hamlet? And most often they are right. There are tons of valuable volumes written on Hamlet. However, that does not stop us to take on an exciting and challenging task to talk about Hamlet time and time again.However, this time our argument is from a slightly different point of view.That is, we will try to discuss here Martin Luther’s views on justice and righteousness and his influence on Shakespeare and his renowned Hamlet.I believe Martin Luther’s philosophy and his view of the world are hidden between the lines of this unmatched play.
