To be or not to be, that is a question.
It is a question whether Chinese means to be or not to be.
The paragraph reads as follows:
Hamlet: to be or not to be-that's the question;
Is it more noble to endure pain?
The blow of a heinous fate
Or take up arms against difficulties,
End them by opposing them. Die-sleep-
No more; Said we ended our sleep.
Heartache and thousands of natural shocks.
The heir of the flesh. This is a complete
I sincerely hope. Death-sleep.
Sleep-maybe dream: alas, that's the problem!
Because what kind of dreams will there be in the sleep of death?
When we get rid of the fetters of the world,
We have to pause. This is respect.
This is such a long-lived disaster.
Who can stand the whipping and ridicule of time,
The mistakes of the oppressor, the rudeness of the proud,
The pain of despised love, the delay of law,
The arrogance and disgust of the office.
The advantage of unworthy patience,
When he can be quiet himself
Bare ass? Who will these Fadel people put up with,
Groaning and sweating in a tired life,
But the fear of things after death-
An undiscovered country, from whose border?
No travelers come back-confused will,
Let's rather put up with our diseases.
Than fly to places we don't know?
Therefore, conscience does make us all cowards,
So the resolution of the natural hue.
Covered with pale thoughts,
And the essence and moment of the enterprise.
At this point, their trend has changed.
Lose the name of action.
Ha: {to himself}
To be or not to be, this is a question:
Should we silently endure the merciless blow of bumpy fate,
Or we should be enemies of endless suffering as deep as the sea,
And overcome it.
Which of the two choices is more noble?
Death is sleep, that's all!
If sleep can end the pain of mind and body,
So, this ending is promising!
Go to hell and go to bed. ...
But there may be dreams in sleep, ah, this is an obstacle:
When we remove this dying skin,
What dreams will you have in the eternal sleep of death?
This makes us hesitate,
So we are willing to endure long-term disasters,
Otherwise, who will tolerate all kinds of human torture,
For example, the tyrant's administration, the pride of the arrogant, the pain of the lovelorn, the slowness of laws and regulations, the insult of corrupt officials, or the humiliation of ordinary people,
What if he can simply give up?
Who else is willing to work hard all his life,
Endure its suffering silently, instead of flying away and drifting in hopeless situations,
What if he didn't hesitate because he was afraid of what was behind him?

Shakespeare wrote thirty-seven plays (thirty-eight, if you add two aristocratic relatives written with Fletcher), two long poems Venus and adonis, The Humiliation of Lucretius and one hundred and fifty-four sonnets in more than twenty years. His plays are mostly based on historical records, novels, folklore and old plays, which reflect the historical reality of the transition from feudal society to capitalist society and publicize the humanitarian thought and human nature view of the emerging bourgeoisie. On the one hand, he borrowed extensively from ancient drama, English medieval drama and emerging culture and art in Europe, on the other hand, he deeply observed life, understood society and grasped the pulse of the times, which enabled Shakespeare to create many vivid characters and paint a broad and colorful picture of social life, and was famous for his blending of sadness and joy, poetic and picturesque, unity in contradiction and change, philosophy of life and critical spirit.
Generally speaking, Shakespeare's drama creation can be divided into the following three periods:
? The first issue (1590 ~ 1600) is mainly about writing historical dramas and comedies, including 9 historical dramas, 2 comedies and 2 tragedies.
Of the nine historical dramas, except King John, which is about English history at the beginning of the 65438+3rd century, the other eight are all two tetralogy: the first, middle and last three of Henry VI and Charles III; Charles ii, Henry IV (known as the most successful historical drama) and Henry V, these historical dramas summed up the turmoil in British history for more than 100 years, shaped a series of positive and negative monarchies, and reflected Shakespeare's humanistic political and moral ideals of opposing feudal separatism, supporting centralization, condemning tyrants and tyranny, demanding enlightened monarchies to carry out top-down reforms and establishing harmonious social relations.
10 Most comedies, The Wrong Comedy, The Taming of the Shrew, Two Gentlemen of Verona, The futility of love, A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Merchant of Venice, The Merry Wives of Windsor, Much ado about nothing, All Happy and Twelfth Night, are all about it. Praise progress and beautiful new features, but also gently expose and ridicule the decay and ugliness of old things, such as the wrong correction of asceticism, the hypocrisy of Puritans and the greed of usurers. The basic tone of Shakespeare's drama creation in this period is optimistic and clear, full of confidence in solving social contradictions with humanistic ideals, so that the tragedy Romeo and Juliet written in this period is also full of comedy atmosphere. Although the hero died of double suicide, the ideal of love overcame death and got the reconciliation of feudal feud. However, the mature comedy The Merchant of Venice in the later period of this period contains melancholy and tragic factors. While advocating kindness, friendship and sincere love, it reflects the class oppression and racial discrimination of the law of the jungle in Christian society, indicating that the author has gradually realized that there is an intractable contradiction between ideal and reality.
The second issue (160 1 ~ 1607) is mainly about tragedies, with three Roman plays, five tragedies and three "black comedies" or "problem plays".
The Roman plays Julius Caesar, Antony and Cleopatra and Cory Ollanu are historical plays adapted from Plutarch's biographies of Greek and Roman heroes.
These four tragedies, Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Macbeth and Timon of Athens, mark the author's deep thinking about the times and life, and strive to shape some tragic protagonists in the new era: they woke up from the imprisonment and ignorance of the Middle Ages and developed or improved themselves ambitiously under the dawn of modern times, but they could not overcome the limitations of the times and themselves, and finally found themselves in the same environment and inner hostile forces. In order to avenge his father, Hamlet found that "the whole era was out of tenon" and decided to take on the responsibility of "rectifying Gankun". As a result, he was too ambitious to return to heaven. Othello is honest and simple, and people hate him. He killed his wife at the mercy of traitors, and was punished for pursuing perfection. King Lear lost his nature and reason in the honor, pride and self-confidence brought by power. He fantasized that by dividing power into different countries to prove that he was not a king, he could be as great as ordinary people, so he suffered painful hardships. Macbeth is a hero with meritorious service, and there are goodness and beauty in his character. Driven by the temptation and ambition of the throne, he degenerated into a "bloody to bloody" sinner and regretted the world. The tragedies of these characters profoundly reveal all kinds of social ugliness and bourgeois egoism that began to appear in primitive accumulation of capital period, and show the irreconcilable contradiction between humanistic ideal and cruel reality, which has a high degree of generalization significance.
Due to the enhancement of the ideological depth and realism depth of dramas in this period, comedies such as troilus, Cressida, All ends well, and Tit for Tit also showed a dark side, shrouded in the evil shadow of treachery and conspiracy, so they were called "problem dramas" or "black comedies".
The tragicomedy or legendary drama in the third issue (1608 ~ 16 13) tends to compromise and fantasy.
His major works are four tragicomedy or legendary dramas Prince Ricci of Tyre, cymbeline, Winter's Tale and The Tempest. Most of these works are about separation, reunion, framing and revenge. Although we still adhere to the ideal of humanism and expose the dark reality, the solution of contradictions mainly depends on magic, fantasy, coincidence and accidental events, and ends with preaching forgiveness, tolerance, compromise and reconciliation.
Shakespeare also collaborated with Fletcher to write the historical drama Henry VIII and the legendary drama Two Noble Relatives, which has been included in the existing Shakespeare plays in recent years.
Excerpts from classic sentences of some works:
The new flame can put out the old flame;
Great pain can alleviate small pain.
Romeo and Juliet
A wise man becomes a fool and is the easiest fish to take the bait; Because he relies on his own talent and knowledge, he can't see his arrogance.
The folly of fools is not unusual, but the folly of smart people makes people laugh; Because he used all his skills to prove his stupidity.
The futility of love
Be true to yourself and you won't cheat others.
Habit has a magical power to change temperament, which can make the devil dominate people's souls and expel them from people's hearts.
Hamlet
I have no road, so I don't need eyes; When I can see, I will also fall. We often lose carelessness by relying on ourselves, but it is not as good as defect.
Don't lend money to others and don't lend money to others; Lending money to others will make you lose money and people, and lending money to others will make you squander money.
King Lear
If a proud person wants to see his face clearly, he can only make a mirror for him with the pride of others; If you bow and scrape to him, it will only increase his arrogance, which will be futile.
Troy Ross and Cressida.
The appearance is often completely inconsistent with the thing itself, and the world is easily deceived by the surface decoration.
Without comparison, there is no advantage; Without appreciation, crows sing like larks. If the nightingale sings in the noise during the day, people will never think that it sings more beautifully than a wren. How many things can be done perfectly and win a proper compliment is all because of the favorable environment.
The Merchant of Venice
Cowards have died many times before they die; A brave man only dies once in his life. Of all the strange things, people's fear of death is the strangest.
Actions speak louder than words, and fools' eyes are much smarter than their ears.
Heroic treason
Doubt is enough to destroy everything. A person often loses his chance of success because he is afraid of things.
The best good people are those who have experienced and made mistakes; A person often shows his cuteness because of a little shortcoming.
Measure a criminal record
He rewards you with money, so he is a good man; With flatterers, there are naturally people who love flatterers.
Zloto
The world is a stage, and all men and women are just actors. They all have their endings and their appearances. How many roles does a person play in his life?
Everyone is happy.
If praise comes from the mouth of the praised, it will subtract the value of praise; Praise from the enemy's mouth is the real glory.
Troy Ross and Cressida.
No matter how long the darkness is, the day will come.
There is no way in the world to explore a person's intentions from his face.
Mcpace
If you become a lion, the fox will cheat you:
If you are a lamb, the fox will come to eat you;
If you are a fox, the lion will doubt you in case the liar reports you;
If you are a liar, your stupidity will make you suffer, and you can't help making breakfast for the jackal. ...
Zloto
In order to frame us, the devil will often tell us the truth on purpose, gain our trust in small things, and then we will fall into his trap at important moments.
Mcpace
God gave birth to us to use us as a torch, not to illuminate ourselves, but to illuminate the world. Because if our virtue can't be extended to others, it's meaningless.
Tit for tat
Proud people always destroy themselves in pride. He always praises himself in front of the mirror, boasting that if something goes wrong, nothing will happen.
No matter how excellent a person's talent is, no matter how beautiful his appearance or heart is, he must shine on others with the brilliance of their virtues, and then those who feel his enthusiasm will reflect on themselves, so that they can experience the existence of their own value.
