Did William Shakespeare mock the church or the middle ages?
Shakespeare did mock the Roman Catholic Church (in the play King John notably) but that was politically correct for the time and place. Had he mocked the Church of England he would have been thrown in jail. He is supposed to have been one of a group of writers who tried to write a play about Sir Thomas More, but it was impossible to get it by the censors because More was a Catholic martyr. The play King John is certainly set in the middle ages, and the middle ages can be said to have lasted perhaps up to the end of the reign of Richard III. In none of these plays is there any suggestion that the world of Shakespeare's day was more enlightened or even much different than that of the past.
