Produktbeschreibung
Shakespeare may be the most impactful writer the world has ever known and yet very little is known about the man or his life. For whatever reason, and who can say why, an Eastern paradigm applied to Shakespeare's works provides remarkable insights and explanations beyond the usual intellectually limited ones. In using Vedanta, the pure metaphysics behind Hinduism, to explain character and motive in one of Shakespeare's most mysterious plays--Hamlet--novel discernments occur.

Here then, is just such a Vedantic rendering of Hamlet.
