More about the book
Exploring the psychological impact of the Virgin Mary's marginalization in post-Reformation England, this work examines early modern cultural and literary responses to her diminished role. The author argues that Shakespeare utilizes both Roman Catholic and post-Reformation perspectives on Marian strength to critique contemporary notions of masculinity. Through this lens, the book invites readers to reconsider religious and gender identities, highlighting the complex interplay between cultural perceptions and individual subjectivity in Shakespeare's works.
