| Abstract | The universality and uniqueness of Shakespeare is his unyielding and resisting insistence on not surrendering to the fossilized logos and metanarratives. He has remained a genius, whose resisting and challenging views have surpassed time and place. This paper makes an attempt to show the dominant traits of modernism and postmodernism in Hamlet. The focal point of the study is to unfold the shift of modern and postmodern traits of the characters and as well as their oscillation between modern and postmodern world. By spotlighting Shakespeare’s modern and postmodern notions in his Hamlet, the study wants to put on show the affinity of Shakespeare with the 20th and 21th century generations, who vacillate between modern and postmodern world. |
