Hamlet is more of a modern hero because of the types of struggles he deals with. Most of Hamlet's struggles are internal. For example, one of Hamlet's biggest internal struggle was deciding "to be or not to be" (Hamlet). Most of the ancient heroes dealt more with external problems, such as a monster or some sort of disaster. As the stories become more modern, the stories begin to incorporate more feelings and emotions, which are still easily relatable today.
