The Bible on the Shakespearean Stage: Cultures of Interpretation in Reformation England
Thomas Fulton
Shakespeare's audience was not simply well-versed in the Bible's content - they were also informed in biblical exegesis, modes of interpretation such as typology and harmonizing, and on the polemics of literal versus figurative reading. This is the first volume to consider how this interpretive knowledge shaped Shakespeare's plays.
