Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Indiana University Press, Bloomington & London, Second Printing, 1971. 466 pages with Notes & Index. Written by Roy W. Battenhouse. From a review: the author "establishes the relationship between Shakespeare's tragedies and Christian thought as represented by the Gospels, Pauline theology, Augustine, and Aquinas. Mr. Battenhouse, through a disciplined knowledge of current scholarship and over ten years of original research, is able to infer a theory of tragedy implicit in the language and structure of Shakespeare's tragedies."

However, note that the previous owner felt a need to stamp his name and address at the bottom of the title page (as well as on the inside of the front cover next to a circular imprint from a sticker i removed). The DJ also looks very nice. It has a few tears(one at bottom of the spine), two spots of small loss (top of spine, and front cover right corner), and a darkening on the white part of the its back.

He was author of "Shakespearean Tragedy: Its Art and Christian Premises" (Indiana University Press, 1969) and "Marlowe's 'Tamburlaine': A Study in Renaissance Moral Philosophy" (Vanderbilt University Press, 1941). He was the editor of "Shakespeare's Christian Dimension: An Anthology of Commentaries" (Indiana University Press, 1994).…
