It has inspired many other writers from Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe and Charles Dickens to James Joyce and Iris Murdoch and has been described as the most world's most filmed story after Cinderella. The story of Shakespeare's Hamlet was derived from the legend of Amleth preserved by the 13 century chronicler Saxo Grammatricus in his Gesta Denorum as subsequently retold by the 16 century scholar Francois de Belle forest. Shakespeare may also have drawn on an earlier Elizabethan play known today as the Ur-hamlet though some scholars believe Shakespeare wrote the Ur- Hamlet later revising it to create a revision of Hamlet that exists today. He almost certainly wrote his version of the title role for his fellow actor Richard Burbage the leading tragedian of Shakespeare's time.
