Book Synopsis The God Within. The Mystery of the Divine in Shakespeare's Plays by : Austin Gragg
Download or read book The God Within. The Mystery of the Divine in Shakespeare's Plays written by Austin Gragg and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-12-28 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, , language: English, abstract: In the works of William Shakespeare there is often times an air of mystery often equated to forces of occult powers. It is my belief that the mystery conveyed through his plays is not mere tricks to entice an audience. Rather his methods involved a comprehensive understanding not only of human nature, but also of forces of higher powers. These powers are often talked about in religious studies and would have been known to most as “God”. So for the purpose of this essay we will think of God as a force rather than a being, a total and comprehensive all pervasive weaving in the fabric of time. To the person uneducated in the occult powers, it is easy to see the outrageous pieces of his art as magic. Which is like the ultimate cop out, just throwing away its value and meaning to the wind. To read Shakespeare is to feel Shakespeare, not some rational understanding. To read Shakespeare is to transport from the ephemeral material world to the eternal realm of spiritual eternity. The sense that this brings to mind is where the aesthetic pleasure of reading Shakespeare envelops the world. It is why we are still reading Shakespeare today and will continue to do so for quite some time. But to know time is to exist on a different plane than Shakespeare inhabited. For Shakespeare’s world was that of the eternal due to a super conscious understanding of the Divine. More than likely these forces were working through him because he had found a way to open himself up to the muses in order to become a muse himself. In other words we are mere fools in time and Shakespeare suffered greatly to give the world a piece of himself.
Book Synopsis Shakespeare, God, and Me by : William Hamilton
Download or read book Shakespeare, God, and Me written by William Hamilton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-12 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is, in part, a record of a passion by one who is not a proper Shakespeare scholar. It contains some conventional literary criticism (some harsh words on Portia, and an analysis of the Credo in Verdi's Otello) and some more eccentric material: a love letter to Cordelia, a short story based roughly on Macbeth, and a long personal essay on King Lear. Probably not enough "God" for the pious.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1890 edition. Excerpt: ...greatest benefit which he can confer upon the State; and the love of the one is overbalanced in his mind by the love of the many. " BRUTUS. Yet see you but our hands, And this, the bleeding business they have done; Our hearts you see not, they are pitiful, And pity to the general wrong of Rome, "BRUTUS. If then that friend demand why Brutus rose against Caesar, this is my answer, not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more." " Amour. This was the noblest Roman of them all: All the conspirators save only he Did that they did in envy of great Caesar; He only, in a general honest thought And common good to all, made one of them." The respectable Brutus lacks ability and foresight, as in generalship so in statesmanship. He attacks at Philippi against the better judgment of Cassius. He allows Antony to live, and to harangue the populace, also against Cassius' more prudent advice. His intelli gence is not sufiicient to enable him to perceive that his blow at Caesar, in spite of his hopes, will not be for the general weal. The tide of opinion has so set in for monarchy, that Brutus himself, having slain Caesar upon rigid republican principles, is hailed as Caesar by the multitude. His action, atrocious in itself, has not the justification that it could save the State. It could only bring on political convulsion and civil war, only--"Teach Bloody instructions, which being taught, return To plague the inventor." Macbeth. The less virtuous, but abler and more far-seeing Antony, utters a true prophecy of the proscriptions, battles, and suicides which followed Brutus' crime, and fill the last two acts of the play. " ANTONY. Over thy wounds now do. I pr0phesy, --A curse shall...
Book Synopsis Shakespeare, Theology, and the Unstaged God by : Anthony D. Baker
Download or read book Shakespeare, Theology, and the Unstaged God written by Anthony D. Baker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-05 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many scholars in Shakespeare and Religious Studies assume a secularist viewpoint in their interpretation of Shakespeare’s works, there are others that allow for a theologically coherent reading. Located within the turn to religion in Shakespeare studies, this book goes beyond the claim that Shakespeare simply made artistic use of religious material in his drama. It argues that his plays inhabit a complex and rich theological atmosphere, individually, by genre and as a body of work. The book begins by acknowledging that a plot-controlling God figure, or even a consistent theological dogma, is largely absent in the plays of Shakespeare. However, it argues that this absence is not necessarily a sign of secularization, but functions in a theologically generative manner. It goes on to suggest that the plays reveal a consistent, if variant, attention to the theological possibility of a divine "presence" mediated through human wit, both in gracious and malicious forms. Without any prejudice for divine intervention, the plots actually gesture on many turns toward a hidden supernatural "actor", or God. Making bold claims about the artistic and theological of Shakespeare’s work, this book will be of interest to scholars of Theology and the Arts, Shakespeare and Literature more generally.

Book Synopsis Shakespeare and the Mystery of God's Judgments by : Robert G. Hunter
Download or read book Shakespeare and the Mystery of God's Judgments written by Robert G. Hunter and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert G. Hunter maintains that the impact of the Protestant Reformation on the Elizabethan mind was in great part responsible for the emergence of the outstanding tragedies of the age. Luther and Calvin caused men to ask how God can be just if man is not free, and Shakespeare's greatest tragedies confront the vexing problems posed by these altered conceptions of man's freedom of will and God's providential control of natural circumstance. Shakespeare's audiences were not single-minded. He wrote for semi-Pelagians, Augustinians, Calvinists, and men and women who did not know what to think. Confl icting certainties, doubts, and uncertainties were his raw material, both within his mind and the minds of the audience. Hunter shows how Shakespeare uses the major attitudes toward God's judgment in creating Richard III, Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth, and King Lear. He notes that Shakespeare's different viewpoints are the heart of the tragedies themselves. Even after Shakespeare's imaginative considerations of the mysteries, the tragedies seem to consistently provide questions rather than answers, and what they inspire in their beholders is more likely to be doubt than faith.

Book Synopsis Crime and God's Judgment in Shakespeare by : Robert Rentoul ReedJr.
Download or read book Crime and God's Judgment in Shakespeare written by Robert Rentoul ReedJr. and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divine retribution, Robert Reed argues, is a principal driving force in Shakespeare's English history plays and three of his major tragedies. Reed finds evidence of the playwright's growing ingenuity and maturing skill in his treatment of the crime of political homicide, its impact on events, and God's judgment on the criminal. Reed's analysis focuses upon Tudor concepts that he shows were familiar to all Elizabethans—the biblical principle of inherited guilt, the doctrine that God is the fountainhead of retribution, with man merely His instrument, and the view that conscience serves a fundamentally divine function—and he urges us to look at Shakespeare within the context of his time, avoiding the too-frequent tendency of twentieth-century critics to force a modern world view on the plays. Heaven's power of vengeance provides an essential unifying theme to the plays of the two historical tetralogies, Julius Caesar, Hamlet, and Macbeth. By analyzing these plays in the light of values held by Shakespeare's contemporaries, Reed has made a substantial contribution toward clarifying our understanding of the plays and of Elizabethan England.

Book Synopsis Shakespeare’S Richard Ii, God, and Language by : John O'Meara

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an in-depth view of the extraordinary revisionist language Shakespeare gives to his most royal of all kings, from the time Richard falls dramatically out of favor with God. Readers will find this book most useful in seeking to disentangle the plays notoriously elaborate verbal presentation, but what the author brings out in connection with Richards approach to language should move performers themselves to seek to present in future a more creatively dynamic Richard than the one we have thus far been required to accept. Especially does this book help one to see more clearly how before Shakespeares difficult re-emergence in his late plays, before all the tragedy, before the fall, there wasGod.
