Secret Shakespeare : Studies in theatre, religion and resistance
In this volume, Wilson asks why Shakespeare remained so enigmatic about his religious beliefs, and demonstrates how he constructed a self-concealing theatre of darkness, deferral, evasion and disguise. This will be essential reading for all Shakespearean scholars, especially those with an interest in the Bard's Catholic connections. -- .
