En savoir plus sur le livre

Shakespeares Hamlet, written in 1600, can be viewed as a distorted criminal drama about revenge for a political murder, set against a backdrop of a developing surveillance regime. In today's world, characterized by extensive population monitoring and control, interpretations of Hamlet's political and philosophical resistance should be approached with greater scrutiny than in the past. This analysis addresses the complexities of the intellectually demanding play by integrating intertextual, philosophical, and political perspectives. The aim is to critically link the political culture of the Renaissance with contemporary issues, highlighting the relevance of Hamlet's themes in our current context of pervasive surveillance and control.
