  This book revisits the question of Shakespeare and religion by focusing on the conjunction of faith and scepticism in his writing. Cox argues that the relationship between faith and scepticism is not an invented conjunction. The recognition of the history of faith and scepticism in the sixteenth century illuminates a tradition that Shakespeare inherited and represented more subtly and effectively than any other writer of his generation.
