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.

First published in 1972. Shakespeare's God investigates whether a religious interpretation of Shakespeare's tragedies is possible. The study places Christianity's commentary on the human condition side by side with what tragedy reveals about it. This pattern is identified using the writings of Christian thinkers from Augustine to the present day. The pattern in the chief phenomena of literary tragedy is also traced

Battenhouse's Shakespearean tragedy: Its art and Christian premises, Irving Ribner's Patterns in Shakespearian tragedy, Virgil K. Whitaker's The mirror up to nature: The techniques of Shakespeare's tragedies, and Robert Grams Hunter's Shakespeare and the mystery of God's judgments. Waters questions, for example, Battenhouse's validity of Christian theological and didactic emphases on the old purgation theory of catharsis. His approach differs also from Northrop Frye's views on the tragedies in Northrop Frye on Shakespeare, an archetypal approach to representative plays including the tragedies.
