Taking three fundamental Protestant concerns of the era ? (double) predestination, conversion, and free will ? it demonstrates how Protestant theologians, in England and elsewhere, re-imagined these longstanding Christian concepts from a specifically Protestant perspective. Shakespeare utilizes these insights to generate his distinctive view of human nature and the relationship between humans and God. Through in-depth readings of the Shakespeare comedies ?The Merry Wives of Windsor?, ?Much Ado About Nothing?, ?A Midsummer Night?s Dream?, and ?Twelfth Night?, the romance ?A Winter?s Tale?, and the tragedies of ?Macbeth? and ?Hamlet?, this book examines the results of almost a century of Protestant thought upon literary art. 606 $aLiterature, Modern 606 $aShakespeare, William, 1564-1616 606 $aProtestantism 606 $aBritish literature 606 $aShakespeare$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/817010 606 $aProtestantism and Lutheranism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A3080 606 $aBritish and Irish Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/833000 615 0$aLiterature, Modern. 615 0$aShakespeare, William, 1564-1616. 615 0$aProtestantism. 615 0$aBritish literature. 615 14$aShakespeare. 615 24$aProtestantism and Lutheranism. 615 24$aBritish and Irish Literature. 676 $a822.33 700 $aGleckman$b Jason$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01228419 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484266403321 996 $aShakespeare and Protestant Poetics$92851827 997 $aUNINA
