Index-Card-M-16-07 DEH (1) When you say Shakespeare is dead, Queen Anne is dead, you mean that a certain collection of molecules & cells changed… That is true. But Shakespeare is more alive now in Society than he was as a youth in Stratford on Avon. (2) You cannot amputate Shakespeare from Society, you must include him. And if you must include him you must include him alive, not dead. In Society he truly lives… ‘Death’ is therefore an abstraction, which sees the individual apart from Whole. As in Adam all die, so in Christ are all alive.
