Abstract
This epilogue moves beyond Shakespeare to consider the relationship between marriage and Christian citizenship in three utopian texts: Thomas More’s Utopia, Francis Bacon’s New Atlantis, and Henry Neville’s Isle of Pines. Reading the first against the latter two, it argues that Utopian monogamy signals of that state’s readiness to enter the body of Christ. The epilogue concludes with a brief discussion of Reformation controversy over the sacramental status of marriage.
