Shakespeare's Religion Examined,
By Richard F. Whalen (Truro, MA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Anglican Shakespeare: Elizabethan Orthodoxy in the Great Histories (Paperback)
This is essential reading for anyone interested in Shakespeare's religion--an issue that recurs continually among Shakespeare scholars. Professor Wright sees the history plays as vital expressions of Shakespeare's patriotism containing a common-sense argument for the Anglican Church as the proper spiritual adjunct of the English (and Tudor)Crown. He makes a persuasive case for Shakespeare as an immensely intelligent, well-read and theologically literate defender of the Anglican Church. This is a powerful (and readable) antidote to the light-weight theorizing about Shakespeare as a Lancashire Catholic.
