Hamlet the HeroThere are different ways of defining a hero. There are an infinite number of people who are heroes. A hero can be "someone who demonstrates courage and/or daring", a hero can be "someone who is extremely noble or self-sacrificing", a hero can be a champion or a winner. A hero can save the day, or even save your life. A hero can be that normal person you see walking down the street. By either of these definitions, Prince Hamlet can definitely be identified as a hero. For his words and actions, clearly show such etiquette and give him the right and reason to say it.
