FROM HEGEL TO HAMLET

on Third Programme

Four talks by Professor Erich Heller
3: The Prince of the Romantic Inwardness
Erich Heller discusses Hamlet as the-in Hegel's sense-greatest ' Romantic ' drama. Hamlet's tragedy is seen as the result of an inwardness which ' passes show'. -that is-a subjectivity which is incapable of regarding the external world as its adequate equivalent. Coleridge, the Romantic critic, first pointed to this Hamlet theme, and T. S. Eliot , the anti-Romantic critic, used it in denying to the drama artistic success.
