Description
Argues that Shakespeare's plays present ""secularization"" not only as a historical narrative of progress but also as a hermeneutic process that unleashes complex and often problematic transactions between sacred and secular. These transactions shape ideas about everything from pastoral government to wonder and the spatial imagination.
