Summary

Shakespeare, Lee Oser argues, is a Christian literary artist who criticises and challenges Christians, but who does so on Christian grounds. Stressing Shakespeare's theological sensitivity, Oser places Shakespeare's work in the ‘radical middle’, the dialectical opening between the sacred and the secular where great writing can flourish.
