Two distinguished terminologies, "e;interoception"e; and "e;exteroception"e; are introduced and taken into consideration, while examining the central character, Prince Hamlet. Previous theories and critical observations are also analysed for a proper assessment of the play. Besides, it is also shown how a careful para-psychological reading can provide an antidote to all previous critical excesses. Critics have often looked upon the play as a potential "e;Pandora's box of troubles"e; interpreting it in a distinctive variety of spectrums. However, the following research shall show how the play is Shakespeare's systematic study and a tribute to the superior intellect of man.
