Shakespeare’s Other Tyrant
In approaching the basic historical question of the Tudor tyranny, by which England was transformed from a predominantly Catholic country, as a constituent part of Christendom, to a largely conforming Protestant country, in the process of becoming a British Empire, it is of no small importance to consider how the great dramatist of the age, William Shakespeare, presented the situation as he saw it from a basically Catholic viewpoint – not directl…
Shakespeare’s Portrayal of a Tyrant
The theme of tyranny, so central (as we have seen in two recent issues of Moreana) to the writings and the experience of Thomas More, is hardly less central to the plays and the memory of William Shakespeare. This centrality appears not so much in the plays of his Elizabethan period as in those of the subsequent Jacobean period, especially in the final romances by way of warming up to his presentation of the historical romance of Henry VIII. Ther…
Shakespeare’s Indebtedness to More
Obviously, the indebtedness of William Shakespeare as dramatist to the writings of Sir Thomas More, as being “the two greatest minds of the Tudor age”, is indisputable, even if we only consider his hand in the MS Book of Sir Thomas More, his use of More’s Life of Richard III as the unique source for his play of Richard III, and his explicit mention of More in the final history play of Henry VIII. All this, however, is what we may read on the line…
Two Tudor Witnesses to “the Corps of Christendom” – More and Shakespeare
In the literary history of Tudor England, I venture to propose two names as standing out and claiming comparison with each other as witnesses to the ideal and reality of Christendom – those of Thomas More in the reign of Henry VIII and William Shakespeare in the reign of Elizabeth I. In the case of More, little needs to be said, it is so obvious that he bore witness to the ideal and the reality, even to the shedding of his blood as a canonized ma…

The Disinherited in Shakespeare’s Plays
In conjunction with the current “revisionism” of English history from a Catholic viewpoint, it is time to undertake a corresponding revision of the plays and personality of William Shakespeare. For this purpose it is not enough to rest content with the meagre historical record, but we have to go ahead in the light of recusant history with a reinterpretation of the plays, considering the extent to which they lend themselves to the Catholic viewpoi…
