Was Shakespeare Catholic? By observing Shakespeare's history and
his plays evidence suggests that he was sympathetic to the
Catholics' plight. He had personal connections to people who were
persecuted for their faith and throughout his plays there is
evidence of a Catholic worldview. The Catholic Shakespeare? gives
an inside look at the 2011 Portsmouth Institute conference,
offering different takes from speakers to Shakespearean plays. Each
speaker offers compelling evidence and some suggestions about the
basis and meaning behind his plays as they relate to a Catholic
view. Dr. Gerard Kilroy, University College, London, assembles
linguistic and thematic cues to suggest Romeo and Juliet as an
allegory for believers and the Catholic Church. Dennis Taylor,
Boston College, takes a more historical approach in his review of
Shakespeare's play The Tempest, tracing Catholic links to early
efforts to explore the Americas. And, finally, Fr. David
Beauregard, St. Clement seminary, takes a religious and
philosophical look at relationships, charity, and the development
of virtue in The Tempest. The Catholic Shakespeare is a must-read
for anyone interested in the mystery behind Shakespeare's religion.
