Hamlet: Notes and Interpretations
by Zhang Pei
About This Novel
"Hamlet's Problem" is an explanation and interpretation of the Western classic "Hamlet". On the basis of careful reading of the original text, the author attempts to combine Chinese and Western classics in the form of notes and poems to examine the life issues such as sacrifice, self-understanding, revenge, life and death that Hamlet, the eternal mirror of mankind, faces from a dual cultural perspective, and deeply analyzes Hamlet's character and existential circumstances, as well as the individual destiny formed by the conflict between the two. The author's multi-dimensional interpretation of Hamlet's classic soliloquy "To be or not to be?" Not only refers to the philosophical proposition that Hamlet thinks about as a "frozen mirror" of human beings/human nature, but also covers the thinking of literary categories such as "tragedy". It can be said that what the title indicates to readers is not only a problem of Hamlet as a person, a problem of metaphysical "people", but also a problem of the play "Hamlet" itself. "Tobe, or not tobe" is not only the object of the author's interpretation, but also the clue and hub for the unfolding of the interpretation.
