Abstract
This paper examines the resilience of Shakespeare’s themes in illuminating portraits of human despair that transcend artificially imposed limitations of ethnicity and geography. An examination of his dramas provides us with depictions of characters who are uncomfortably familiar in our twenty-first century network of social interactions. Systemic corruptions and abuses of power fracture social fabrics and frustrate global relationships. His poignant presentations of compromised individuals and societies can assist our diagnosis and search for remedies to global social disintegration in our own time.
