Book excerpt: Read & Co. Classics presents this new beautiful edition of William Shakespeare's play, "Richard II". This edition features a specially commissioned new biography of William Shakespeare. The play is the first in Shakespeare's tetralogy chronicling the successive reigns of Richard II, Henry IV and Henry V, and covers the battle for power between King Richard and Henry Bolingbroke (who would eventually be Henry IV). Embezzlement, exile and an uprising fail to restore Richard’s place as King. Richard is depicted as feminine and weak, in contrast with the strong and masculine Bolingbroke. The play’s implications on traditional expectations of men in society is an area of growing interest for contemporary scholars. William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616) was an English playwright, poet, and actor. He is considered to be the greatest writer in the English language and is celebrated as the world's most famous dramatist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Death of King Richard II It is intended to publish from time to time the plays of Shakespeare as performed in the Memorial Theatre. For the convenience of the frequenters of the theatre, these plays will present the stage arrangement, and yet give the original text in its entirety, so that they may be useful to families and circles where the delightful practice of reading aloud occupies a part of the winter evenings. The manners and taste of the present age will not permit of the use of certain words and expressions that were of common occurrence three hundred years ago, and the Editor has endeavoured, without altering the meaning of the Poet, to omit or soften such expressions. He has not aimed at bringing out a "Shakespeare" for children, but rather to present such an edition as can be read aloud in general society. It must be noted that Shakespeare was emphatically a pure writer. Nothing of the improprieties which came into vogue a generation later ever sullied his pen. In no single instance is virtue or modesty held up to ridicule, or vice shown in any other light than its own deformity. His language is simply the language common to the age in which he lived. It is sought in this edition to make only such changes as will adapt it to our own times. The Editor has frequently noticed among a Theatrical audience some engaged with volumes of an ordinary edition of Shakespeare endeavouring, often vainly, to follow the text during the progress of the play.
