Lecture: Shakespeare & Augustine on the Drama of Love

In this lecture we explore Shakespeare as a theologian of love, the drama of love, taken from Augustine’s theology of love. We also examine how love is sanctifying, redeeming, and salvific in Romeo & Juliet, Twelfth Night, and Antony & Cleopatra.
