Sommario/riassunto |
|
Hamlet stands as a high water mark of canonical art, yet it has equally attracted rebels and experimenters, those avant-garde writers, dramatists, performers, and filmmakers who, in their adaptations and appropriations, seek new ways of expressing innovative and challenging thoughts in the hope that they can change perceptions of their own world. This partially explains the uncanny ability of Shakespeare's Hamlet to be "ever-now, ever-new." |
