Introduction: reformations of the body -- Dead idols and lively images: A genealogy of Protestant iconoclasm -- Sacrament and theater: Shakespeare's lawful magic -- Theatrical authorship and providential bodies: the case of Doctor Faustus -- Revenge, sacrifice, and post-reformation theater: the Spanish tragedy -- Shakespeare and revenge: the anthropology of sacrifice in Titus Andronicus and Othello -- Virgin martyrs and sacrificial sovereigns: Thomas Dekker's politic bodies -- Epilogue: iconoclastic bodies and literary technique: Oldcastle to Milton.

Reformations of the Body establishes new ties between theology and theatricality in the time of Shakespeare, juxtaposing original readings of religious thinkers such as John Calvin with case studies of influential tragedies such as Doctor Faustus and Othello. While current accounts of the Reformation often assume that Protestant iconoclasts devalued sensory experience and bodily praxis, Jennifer Waldron shows how and why the human body and the bodily senses retained sacred value after the Reformation. In readings of scenes of providential revival, bloody pacts with the devil, and sacrificial rites of revenge, she shows how theological problems became tightly bound to the living medium of theater itself.
