Headlam Wells argues that Shakespeare took a sceptical view of the militant-Protestant cult of heroic masculinity and at the end of his writing career turned to a different kind of leader. Plays receiving close readings include The Tempest, Henry V, Troilus and Cressida, Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth and Coriolanus.
