The Pursuit and Construction of Ideal Humanity in Modern Western Literature——From Hamlet to Faust
The development and improvement of human personality has always been a focused topic in western literature.From the Renaissance"human discovery"to the subjective awakening and exploring practice of human being in the 18th century are all re-sponses and reflections of the great writers to the times.Shakespeare's Hamlet,Goethe's characters and his life-long pursuit,all dis-play some connections of western literature in its succession of presenting ideal humanity.In the long course of self-awareness,mod-ern westerners gradually turned from aesthetic ideal humanity to expansive practical experience.The image of Faust,as the practitio-ner of the early modern subjective ideal humanity,also triggered the vigilance and reflection on the problem of modernity.
