MALLIN ERIC S
Godless Shakespeare
The Continuum Publishing Company New York: 2007. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Godless Shakespeare is the first book to discuss Shakespeare's plays from an atheist perspective. Although it is clear that Shakespeare engaged with and deployed much of his culture's broadly religious interests - his language is shot through with biblical quotations priestly sermonizing and Christian imagery - Mallin argues that there is a profound absence of or hostility to God in his plays. Following Dante's three-part structure for the Divine Comedy - Hell represents expressions of religious faith in Shakespeare's plays Purgatory sets out more sceptical positions and Heaven shows articulations of godlessness - Mallin traces a spiritual ascent from the unthinkingly devout to the atheistically spiritual. This polemical vigorous account focuses on the moral and spiritual dilemmas of major characters developing the often subtle transitions between belief scepticism and atheism. Finally Godless Shakespeare argues for the liberating potential of unbelief. The Table Of Contents of the book is as follows: Introduction HELL - Religious Faith Pericles: God's Bitch Hamlet: Hamlet's Dark Song Isabella: Replacement Theology Titus: Crackers PURGATORY- Skepticism Antonio: Conspicuously Failed Christ Figures Named Portia: The Profit Driven Life Katherina: Sun Moon Loss of Light Hamlet: Happy Suicide Leontes and audience: It is Required HEAVEN- Godlessness Aaron: Aaron Ascendant Macbeth: The Life to Come Bottom: Dreams of Sex and Death Cleopatra: Her Becomings References and Index. Eric S. Mallin is Associate Professor of English at the University of Texas at Austin USA. He is the author of Inscribing the Time: Shakespeare and the End of Elizabethan England Berkeley: U of California Press 1995 "Always intriguing usually provocative and occasionally infuriating Godless Shakespeare is a brilliant meditation on Shakespeare's ways with his characters and the systems of moral values in which we place them. Mallin's Shakespeare is never constricted by conventional parameters of religion and belief but instead is a thoroughly original creator demanding our engaged moral response to his creations. In Mallin's excitingly heterodox cosmology Cleopatra and Aaron Pericles and Isabella find themselves with unexpected companions in the new heaven hell and purgatory in which Mallin arranges them. Thinking about Shakespeare and religion has never seemed such fun." Professor Peter Holland Notre Dame University The Continuum Publishing Company, New York: 2007 hardcover
