Indescribable Shakespeare
by Li Weifang
About This Novel
This book mainly consists of three parts: the first part is a selection and analysis of Shakespeare's sonnets; the second part is a selection and analysis of Shakespeare's wonderful monologues in his plays; the third part is a brief history of Western Shakespeare criticism. Also included is a research paper exploring the relationship between Shakespeare and the Bible. The author has several main considerations in structuring this book. First of all, the research results on Shakespeare, especially on Shakespeare's plays, can be said to be numerous and innumerable, and their research contents cover almost every corner. But comparatively speaking, the analysis and discussion of Shakespeare's sonnets are relatively weak. Although some scholars have analyzed and evaluated some of Shakespeare's important sonnets, so far there has not been a book analyzing Shakespeare's sonnets. The central theme of Shakespeare's sonnets is love and friendship, which expresses the poet's understanding and views of love, friendship, youth and beauty, which strongly reflects the poet's innocent and pure altruistic thoughts and broad mind of tolerance and understanding; it also expresses the poet's aggressive outlook on life that desires to defeat time and cherish life. At the same time, the poem also reveals some broader and deeper thoughts and feelings, such as strong resentment and hatred towards the ugly realities of the society at that time, such as intrigues, the weak and the strong, and the confusion of right and wrong. This emotion is the basic starting point for the poet's future tragedy creation. In addition, many poems also express the poet's persistent pursuit of aesthetic ideals in literary and artistic creation. This is an important document for understanding the poet's artistic outlook. Obviously, a more comprehensive and specific analysis of these poems will help people understand Shakespeare's greatness and profundity more comprehensively and emotionally from a poetic perspective. Secondly, it is also very meaningful to understand and analyze Shakespeare from the perspective of dramatic character monologues. There are many wonderful monologues in Shakespeare's plays that are familiar to readers of all generations and have been passed down for generations.
