Publisher's Synopsis
The book ""The Poetry Of Shakespeare As Derived From The Bible"" by Charles Wordsworth is a literary analysis of the works of William Shakespeare. The author explores the influence of the Bible on Shakespeare's poetry, examining the biblical themes, allusions, and references present in his plays and sonnets. Wordsworth argues that Shakespeare's use of biblical language and imagery was not merely decorative, but rather a deliberate and meaningful choice that added depth and complexity to his works. The book includes detailed analysis of select passages from Shakespeare's plays and sonnets, as well as comparisons to relevant biblical texts. This book is a valuable resource for students and scholars of Shakespeare's works, as well as readers interested in the intersection of literature and religion.THIS 36 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Shakespeare's Knowledge and Use of the Bible, by Charles Wordsworth.
