Review

No other study on Hamlet has yet to consider the way in which the play in its four major aspects of Sorrow, Sexuality, Revenge, and Death, consistently reflects the otherworldly direction of Hamlet's thought and experience …

Description

The longstanding challenge and problem of living through tragedy, as opposed to living beyond it or simply carrying on in spite of it, is highlighted in this extensive and in-depth scholarly study. Shakespeare was able to live through tragedy and consequently could come into those higher evolutionary states of mind and being, until now so little known, that are so impressively represented in his last plays. Remembering Shakespeare, in this year of the 400th anniversary of his death, would seem to call especially for this most far-reaching aspect of his achievement, for so long unrecognized, to be at last duly noted and laid open to view.

Author

JOHN O’MEARA is the author of numerous publications on Shakespeare, Romanticism, and Modernity. Otherworldly Hamlet/Othello’s Sacrifice/Prospero’s Powers, three short studies elaborated from a neo-Romantic point of view, were followed by the trilogy On Nature and the Goddess in Romantic and post-Romantic Literature, incorporating further studies on Romantic and modern authors. A partial synthesis of this wide spectrum of studies appeared concurrently with this latter Trilogy, under the title Shakespeare, the Goddess, and Modernity. This collection features still more of O’Meara’s Shakespeare work, including his original views on Shakespeare’s association with Martin Luther.
