Why are the contemporary tragic writers Tang Xianzu and Guan Hanqing less well-known in the world than Shakespeare?
The most influential nature is Shakespeare, who is famous all over the world. He was called "Shakespeare" by later generations, which shows that later generations respected Shakespeare! But Tang Xianzu is different from Guan Hanqing. They are particularly famous in the East, especially the Peony Pavilion by Tang Xianzu and Dou Eyuan by Guan Hanqing, which are even more prominent in the world! But they are unknown in the world, little known!
To some extent, this also reflects the differences in the achievements of the three tragic playwrights. Shakespeare's achievements often far exceed those of Tang Xianzu and Guan Hanqing! In fact, this is mainly caused by subjective and objective factors! Objectively speaking, Guan Hanqing and Tang Xianzu were in feudal society and had great limitations of the times. The limitations of the times lead to their ideological limitations, so the tragedies of most of their works are caused by society, which is very monotonous!
Shakespeare is completely different. The west where he lives is in the period of great geographical discovery. During this period, his thoughts began to be liberated, so naturally there was no such great ideological bondage in literary creation! From the subjective point of view, Shakespeare's tragedies can be divided into personal tragedies, times tragedies and religious tragedies, and there are many kinds of tragedies! However, the tragedies of Guan Hanqing and Tang Xianzu are almost all single social tragedies, and there are a lot of optimism factors in their tragedies. Most of their tragedies will end in "dzogchen"!
This personal limitation makes them unable to compare with Shakespeare!
