Solution
The correct option is A a tragedy A careful reading of Hamlet's monologue reveals that the passage is an extract from a tragic play.
"I have of late - but wherefore I know not - lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises; and indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory, this most excellent canoopy, the air, look you, this brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours."- this extract from Hamlet's monologue also supports the claim that the passage is a tragedy. So, the answer is option A.
