Hamlet And The Philosophy Of History

by W. F. C. Wigston

Book Overview

Hamlet and the Philosophy of History is a book written by W. F. C. Wigston that explores the relationship between the Shakespearean play Hamlet and the philosophy of history. The book delves into the themes of the play, including the nature of truth, the meaning of life, and the role of fate in human affairs. Wigston argues that Hamlet is a work of art that embodies the spirit of the Renaissance, a time when people began to question the traditional beliefs about the world and their place in it. He also examines the historical context of the play, discussing the political and social events that shaped Shakespeare's worldview. The book is a thought-provoking analysis of one of the greatest works of literature and an exploration of the timeless questions that continue to fascinate us.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Bacon, Shakespeare and the Rosicrucians, by W.
