摘要

Chapter 8 has established the rationale for a Macbeth-Hamlet comparison, noting that Hamlet and Macbeth represent two poles of tragic modernity. Chapter 9 will enact this comparison by focusing on each hero’s encounter with the supernaturalsupernatural. Specifically, it contrasts Macbeth’s credulous response to the witcheswitches with Hamlet’s sceptical response to his father’s ghost. This continues a Hegelian dialectical approach: having set up the two protagonists’ profiles, we now examine parallel scenes that illuminate their ethical orientations.
