I am naturally suspicious of "forgotten codes" . . . they are so often just an inkblot test for the writer's own predilections . . .
Guess I'll have to read it and see.

From what I've read of this book, Lady Asquith overreaches a bit. But I do think the case for Shakespeare's recusant sympathies is generally pretty solid. Religion is generally ignored in scholarship today, and academics have only recently begun to take it seriously again as a historical influence.
