Hassel examines informed allusions to familiar Pauline and Erasmian Christian passages and themes in Shakespeare's plays. He argues that not only did Shakespeare's audience understand these allusions but also that these allusions led the audience to recognize their pertinence to the playwright's uniquely Christian comic vision.
