Mr. T. S. Eliot regards 'Hamlet' as 'an artistic failure' because he can not find 'objective correlative' in this drama, which evokes the particular emotion from the external facts. But Mr. F. Fergusson considers that 'Hamlet' is an artistic success by laying emphasis on 'the analogy of action, in each character. My intention is to prove the artistic success of 'Hamlet' as the drama, examining the development of its 'theme' and 'action'. And I arrived at the conclusion that Shakespeare's Hamlet was characteristic of 'Manierismus' in dramaturgy.
