The conflict is ultimately resolved in diametrically opposing ways in each play‚ according to the conventions of their respective genres. Hamlet is a tragedy‚ and therefore can result only in death‚ but AMND‚ as a comedy‚ uses the traditional method of marriage to resolve its conflict. Shakespeare opens
