Book King Henry the Eighth Annotated

Download or read book King Henry the Eighth Annotated written by William Shakespeare and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-10 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Henry the Eighth is a history play generally believed to be a collaboration between William Shakespeare and John Fletcher, based on the life of Henry VIII of England. The play implies, without stating it directly, that the treason charges against the Duke of Buckingham were false and trumped up; and it maintains a comparable ambiguity about other sensitive issues. The disgrace and beheading of Anne Boleyn (here spelled Bullen) is carefully avoided, and no indication of the succeeding four wives of Henry VIII can be found in the play. However, Catherine of Aragon's plea to Henry before the Legatine Court seems to have been taken straight from historical record.

A few masters, including Buckingham, enter; Buckingham is irate that Cardinal Wolsey has such capable impact over the ruler. Buckingham associates Wolsey with being goal-oriented and traitorous. Alternate rulers ask him to hush up about his words, however simply at that point, a monitor comes to capture Buckingham with the charge of treachery. He goes discreetly to imprison. The ruler and ruler go to a hearing in which Wolsey questions Buckingham's previous representative (the Surveyor) about his loyalties. This man pronounces that Buckingham fancied himself next in line to the honored position should the ruler kick the bucket without a beneficiary. Henry is rankled and sentences Buckingham to death for traitorousness. In any case, the ruler believes that the Surveyor has hard feelings toward Buckingham and has conveyed lies in his declaration.

Book excerpt: It is perhaps a matter rather for regret than for surprise that so few attempts have been made to describe, as a whole, the life and character of Henry VIII. No ruler has left a deeper impress on the history of his country, or done work, which has, been the subject of more keen and lasting contention. Courts of law are still debating the intention of statutes, the tenor of which he dictated; and the moral, political, and religious, are as much in dispute as the legal, results of his reign. He is still the Great Erastian, the protagonist of laity against clergy. His policy is inextricably interwoven with the high and eternal dilemma of Church and State; and it is well-nigh impossible for one who feels keenly on these questions to treat the reign of Henry VIII. in a reasonably judicial spirit. No period illustrates more vividly the contradiction between morals and politics. In our desire to reprobate the immorality of Henry's methods, we are led to deny their success; or, in our appreciation of the greatness of the ends he achieved, we seek to excuse the means he took to achieve them. As with his policy, so with his character. There was nothing commonplace about him; his good and his bad qualities alike were exceptional. It is easy, by suppressing the one or the other, to paint him a hero or a villain. He lends himself readily to polemic; but to depict his character in all its varied aspects, extenuating nothing nor setting down aught in malice, is a task of no little difficulty.

Book Henry VIII William Shakespeare Annotated Edition

Download or read book Henry VIII William Shakespeare Annotated Edition written by William Shakespeare and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-02-16 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Henry VIII has one of the fullest theatrical histories of any play in the Shakespeare canon, yet has been consistently misrepresented, both in performance and in criticism. This edition offers a new perspective on this ironic, multi-layered, collaborative play, revealing it as a complex meditation on the progress of Reformation which sees English life since Henry VIII's day as a series of bewildering changes in national and personal allegiance and represents 'history' as the product of varied and contradictory testimony. McMullan makes a powerful claim for the rehabilitation of Henry VIII, providing the fullest performance history of any edition to date and reading the work not as a marginal 'late' Shakespeare play but as a play which is paradigmatic of the achievement of Renaissance drama as a whole.`This is a staggeringly brilliant, captivating edition that will undoubtedly occasion a huge surge of critical interest in this neglected play. For those of use who have never taken Henry VIII very seriously ' perhaps dismissing it as a late collaborative play of no consequence or as conservative propaganda ' McMullan's introduction is genuinely revelatory.'Eric Rasmussen, University of Nevada at Reno, Shakespeare Survey.
