Four Histories William Shakespeare Published by Literature - Plays

Author: William Shakespeare

Publisher: Literature - Plays

Description:
This volume contains the tetralogy of plays - Richard II, Henry IV Parts 1 and 2 and Henry V - written by Shakespeare c. 1595to 1599. Each play possesses its own distinctive modd, tone and style, and together they inhabit the turbulent period of change from the usurpation of the throne of Richard II by Bolingbroke to the triumph - some would say triumphalism - of heroic kingship in Henry V. While Walter Pater in his famous essay found the central idea of the Histories to be 'the irony of kingship - average human nature, flung with wonderfully pathetic effect into the vortex of great events', others have interpreted the plays as political moralities, or as specifically Tudor versions of history. Many will agree with the Duke of Marlborough, who said he was content to know no more English history than that dramatized by Shakespeare. In this collection each play is accompanied by notes and an introduction, making this edition of particular value to students and theatre-goers.
