AN ENQUIRY into the PHILOSOPHY and RELIGION of SHAKSPEARE . By W . J . Birch , M . A ., New Inn Hall , Oxon , Author of the " Real and Ideal . " Lettered , in cloth , price 4 s . " A curious and even an attractive book . It is pervaded by a distinct purpose , sustained by Zealand industry . The defence of Othello' against the charge of ' Iago's' insufficiency of motive , and the estimate of ' Cassio ' s' character , exhibit thought and criticism . "—Spectator . This is one of the most marvellous books produced in the nineteenth century . The author is in earnest , and his book is a serious and awe-inspiriug work . " —Tablet . . " The task of testing the great bard ' s religious sentiments in a manner most legitimate , has been ably accomplished by Mr . Birch . The book throws much additional light on the real structure of Shakspeare's mind . " —Weekly Dispatch . " Mr . Birch ' s , attempt is to remove the veil that wraps the poet , curious to see whether or not his countenance ' shineth as that of angel . ' This unveiling Mr . Birch does with a daring , but a gentle hand . "—Leamington Courier . " Mr . Birch ' s book is an elaborate and systematic exposition of the natural history of Shak ^ pere ' s opinions—eloquent with facts , minute in analysis , faithful in detail , and impartial in execution . It is an anodyne to the parched spirit to turn to the fresh pages of Mr . Birch—redolent of a manly and dignified criticism , which keeps close to truth and disdains to pander to omnipotent opinion . " —Reasoner . C . Mitchell , Red Lion-court , Fleet-street , London .
