Marriage features to a greater or lesser extent in virtually every
play Shakespeare wrote - as the festive end of comedy, as the link
across the cycles of the history plays, as a marker of the
difference between his own society and that depicted in the Roman
plays, and, all too often, as the starting-point for the tragedies.
Situating his representations of marriage firmly within the
ideologies and practices of Renaissance culture, Lisa Hopkins
argues that Shakespeare anatomises marriage much as he does
kingship, and finds it similarly indispensable to the underpinning
of society, however problematic it may be as a guarantor of
personal happiness.
