Title: Morality in the Work of the Master
Review: I enjoyed this little book but not because of its supposed analysis of 'spiritual values' in the eight Shakespeare plays examined. Of course, the word 'spiritual' has many different meanings and while I originally took it to mean 'religious,' the subject of this book would more aptly be called 'moral values' in Shakespeare as various moral qualities or defects are examined in the context of certain plays (jealousy:Othello, inhumanity:Merchant of Venice, indecision:Hamlet, etc.). Still, it's an interesting read looking at an angle of Shakespeare I had never thought of.
