The new millennium, by contrast, appears to have opened under the guise of generalized insecurity, which pertains not only to the historical and social situation, or to one’s personal psychological predicament, but to our very being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Earth’s current faltering and the twilight of every convention that might govern it—where roles, images, and languages become confused by a lack of direction and distance—were already powerfully prophesied in Shakespeare’s \u003cem\u003eHamlet\u003c\/em\u003e, and later in the works of Kafka and Beckett.
