AB  - Argues that there is innate "tragic vision" within history of social thought. Employs theory of "tragic social science" to examine philosophical and literary works, including plays by Shakespeare, in order to assess "questions of agency and collectivity in the social sciences." Considers especially "Shakespeare’s secular universe of the self" in plays like Hamlet.
