Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The charm of Hamlet over the centuries largely lies in Shakespeare’s subtle treatment of Hamlet, and many critics have interpreted Hamlet’s tragedy as a result of his indecisive character, his obsession with philosophical thinking or his Oedipus Complex. This essay holds that Hamlet’s struggle with his femininity also contributes to his tragedy. Hamlet does exhibit some masculine traits such as courage, rationality and aggressiveness, but at the same time he is agonized to find that he is as weak, emotional, passive and dependent as a woman. In whatever cases he is placed either as a prince, a son or a lover, he is more identified with women than with men. Such a discovery tortures him and produces in him some sense of self-negation and self-hatred. Because of his deep-rooted patriarchal concept of gender identity, Hamlet cannot make a compromise with the feminine traits in him, and it somewhat prevents him from taking a masculine action to avenge his father. Key words: Hamlet; Femininity; Masculinity; Tragedy; Self-Hatred Resume: Depuis des sicecles, le charme d’Hamlet se trouve largement dans un traitement subtil de Shakespeare de ce personnage et de nombreuses critiques ont interprete la tragedie d'Hamlet en raison de son caractere indecis, son obsession par la pensee philosophique ou son complexe d'Œdipe. Cet essai soutient le point de vue que la lutte d'Hamlet contre sa feminite contribue egalement a sa tragedie. Hamlet montre certains traits masculins tels que le courage, la rationalite et l'agressivite, mais en meme temps il est angoisse de voir qu'il est aussi faible, emotionnel, passif et dependant comme une femme. Dans quelque cas, il n’est plus traite en tant qu’un prince, un fils ou un amant, il est plus identifie avec les femmes qu’avec les hommes. Une telle decouverte le torture et produit chez lui un sentiment d'auto-negation et de haine de soi. En raison de son concept patriarcal profondement enracine de l'identite de genre, Hamlet ne peut pas faire un compromis avec ses traits feminins, ce qui l’empeche de prendre une action virile pour venger son pere. Mots-Cles: Hamlet; femininite; masculinite; tragedie; haine de soi

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
