The Elizabethan Great Chain of Being Shakespeare’s World View

The Great Chain of Being Shakespeare’s language is different from ours because his thinking was different from ours, especially about nature and the order of the universe.

The Great Chain of Being An order of hierarchy in which every single created thing in the universe has its place. God’s love flows through, sustains, and holds together this whole system. Compounded Biblical lore, Greek philosophy, and much far fetched natural history. One of the most important and long- lasting ideas in man’s history.

Element Humor Fire (hot & dry) (choler)  “choleric” (easily angered) Air (hot & moist) (blood)  “sanguine” (cheerful, confident) Water (cold & moist) (phlegm)  “phlegmatic” (sluggish, apathetic) Earth (cold & dry) (black bile)  “melancholy” (sad, depressed)

Rules: Great Chain of Being Everything has its place God’s love holds it all together When someone tries to get out of line, the whole order is thrown into confusion Belief in the rightness of ORDER Stating what a thing is implies its VALUE Leads to comparison or analogy A King could be called: -God like -Gold -Father of his land -Sun -Head of his kingdom -Eagle -Lion
