摘 要
《哈姆雷特》和《雷雨》是中西方戏剧史上具有代表性的悲剧著作。莎士比亚的《哈姆雷特》描写了文艺复兴时期的王子复仇,曹禺的《雷雨》刻画了中国旧社会的大家庭悲剧。很多学者、评论家热衷于研讨这两部著作中人物悲剧命运的成因,成果颇丰,英语论文,却很少将两者相比较。本篇论文主要通过略论法和比较法,探讨《哈姆雷特》和《雷雨》中主要人物悲剧命运的体现方面及其成因,并从不同角度对这两部著作悲剧效果的相似性和不同点进行比较。我们可以得出,在某种程度上,悲剧是一个时代和社会的映射,英语论文,是不同矛盾冲突的产物。不论东方还是西方,悲剧总是存在。本篇论文有助于我们了解东西方的社会文化,东西方悲剧的创作手法及悲剧背后揭露社会、追求人性解放的精神诉求。

In this paper, we will explore, mainly by the methods of analysis and comparison, the tragic aspects of the main characters’ destines respectively in Hamlet and in Thunderstorm and these causes. Moreover, we will make a comparison of the two dramas to conclude their similarities and differences, from different perspectives. We can draw the conclusion that, to some extent, tragedy is the reflection of an era or a society, and the production of different conflicts. Irrespective of the East or the West, there is always being a tragedy. This paper contributes to our better understanding of the cultures and customs of the orient and west, various writing approaches used in the creation of western and eastern tragedies, as well as the aspiring spiritual pursuit of condemning the dark side of the society and the liberation of humanity.
