Beschreibung

Shuger's study of Measure to Measure offers a sweeping reinterpretation of English political thought in the aftermath of the Reformation, one that focuses not on the tension between Crown and Parliament but on the relation of the sacred to the state.

Zusammenfassung

A fascinating, adventurous and revisionist study of Shakespeare's most controversial play: every Shakespearean researcher and student will need to take account of

Uses play to focus a wide-ranging historical inquiry into religious assumptions and aspirations shaping Tudor-Stuart political thought

Far broader approach than usual context to Shakespeare studies and includes discussion of Classical, patristic and medieval traditions as well as obvious focus on play's contemporary scene
