Branson Gentry · Answer 1

Hamlet was a man of inaction because he did not take any action for revenge till the end.

Explanation:

Hamlet was one of the most famous plays written by William Shakespeare. When he wrote that play, it was run across a lot of places in the country. The main character of the story was Hamlet himself so the name of the play was after the name of the character only.

Hamlet was a man of inaction and he did not take any action till the end of the play for taking revenge for the death of his own father. Throughout the play he continuously procrastinates on his ultimate goal which is killing Claudius and revenging his father and family name. This makes him a man of inaction.
