He couldn't believe what he was hearing: Shakespeare at a funeral? How could William Shakespeare be considered appropriate for a pastor to recite at his grandmother's funeral? However, after further study, author Jock Chandler learned God's Word is evident in Shakespeare's plays, which he highlights in his new book, A Christian's Companion to Shakespeare's Tragedies. Using a Christian perspective to view Shakespeare, Jock discovered that Shakespeare seemed to have a biblical understanding on the human condition: Hamlet and casting out demons, Othello and faithfulness, and hypocrisy in the church viewed in several plays. Jock also expands on the religious background of Shakespeare and his insight on the Catholic Church in the 1500s. Readers will enjoy seeing the Christian interpretations of their favorite tragedies, such as King Lear, Romeo and Juliet, and MacBeth, while being fascinated to learn of the obvious bond between Shakespeare and Christianity; appropriate even for a funeral.
