Re-thinking Hamlet in the 21st Century: Different Cultures, Same Questions?

The article, from an inter-disciplinary perspective, addresses William Shakespeare’s character Hamlet and his ‘whirlwinds of passion’. The troubles we encounter in Hamlet’s questionings of many of life’s values, purposes, and meanings simultaneously suggest the same patterns of trouble contemporary readers encounter in their social surrounding. In seeking answers to Hamlet’s questions—and our own— as well as in recognizing the possibility of reconstructing, re-thinking, and re-using patterns of this literary text, the article reveals our own present realities and ‘whirlwinds of passion’.
