Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Didactics - English - Literature, Works, Ranchi University , language: English, abstract: The present paper endeavours to give an in depth para-psychological reading of William Shakespeare's classic play 'Hamlet, Prince Of Denmark'. Two distinguished terminologies, "interoception" and "exteroception" are introduced and taken into consideration, while examining the central character, Prince Hamlet. Previous theories and critical observations are also analysed for a proper assessment of the play. Besides, it is also shown how a careful para-psychological reading can provide an antidote to all previous critical excesses. Critics have often looked upon the play as a potential "Pandora's box of troubles" interpreting it in a distinctive variety of spectrums. However, the following research shall show how the play is Shakespeare's systematic study and a tribute to the superior intellect of man.
