Hamnet Shakespeare fue el único hijo varón de William Shakespeare y Anne Hathaway, y hermano mellizo de Judith Shakespeare. Murió a los once años de edad por causas desconocidas. Existen numerosas teorías que señalan que su muerte inspiró a su padre a escribir Hamlet, obra probablemente compuesta entre 1599 y 1601. Asimismo, otras teorías postulan una conexión entre su fallecimiento y la posterior creación de obras dramáticas como El rey Juan, Enrique IV, Romeo y Julieta, Julio César, Noche de reyes, entre otras. Las teorías que relacionan a Hamnet con la obra de su padre se hicieron populares a inicios del siglo XVIII y su notoriedad se extendió hasta la década de 1930, época en que surgieron importantes corrientes literarias a favor de excluir los componentes biográficos e históricos en el análisis de las obras literarias, como son el modernismo y la Nueva crítica. En los últimos años, las teorías sobre la relación de Hamnet con las obras de su padre han vuelto a resurgir debido a que la Nueva crítica ha perdido la aceptación de algunos académicos.
