Hamlet (one of the Top Ten Literary Masterpieces in the World)
About This Novel
"Hamlet" contains Shakespeare's four most famous tragedies: "Hamlet", "Othello", "King Lear" and "Macbeth". In order to avenge his father, Hamlet found that "the whole era was out of joint" and decided to take up the responsibility of "rearranging the world". The result was that his ambition was empty and he was unable to recover. Othello is an upright and honest man who trusts people but hates evil as much as he hates evil. He killed his wife and himself under the influence of an adulterer. In pursuit of the best and the most beautiful, he suffered evil retribution. King Lear lost his nature in the honor, pride, and self-confidence that power brought to him. He lost his role as a king and became an ordinary person. He could be equally or even greater, so he suffered a lot of pain. Macbeth was originally a meritorious hero with a kind and beautiful side in his character. However, driven by the temptation of the throne and ambition, he became a sinner who "went from blood to blood" and regretted nothing. The tragedies of these characters profoundly reveal the various social evils that have begun to appear during the period of primitive accumulation of capital, and show the irreconcilable contradiction between humanistic ideals and cruel reality, which has a high degree of general significance.
