Annotation:
	Uses 1 and 2 Henry VI and King John to argue that "faith in Shakespeare is not so much a matter of systematic allegiance as one of constant debate and controversy," reading the plays in the context of the religious and political turmoil of the 1590s, including Elizabeth's excommunication, Mary Stuart's troubling presence in England, the Babington Plot, and the Spanish Armada. German summary, 86-87.
