摘要
This essay examines what might be termed the Shakespearean view of the human condition, which regards life as a performance: 'All the world's a stage!' It pitches the performance orientation against what is arguably the leading contemporary ideal in the West, that of authenticity. It asks which is the more plausible philosophy in secular modern times.
