Book excerpt: First published in 1947 in the USA. This edition reprints the first UK edition of 1964. Published to critical acclaim, the central argument of this book is that the historical play must be studied as a genre separate from tragedy and comedy. Just as there is in Shakespearean tragedies a dominant ethical pattern of passion opposed to reason, so there is in the history plays a dominant political pattern characteristic of the political philosophy of the age. From the 'troublesome reign' of King John to the 'tragical doings' of Richard III, Shakespeare wove the events of English history into plots of universal interest.

Book excerpt: "The Steve Jobs of the Shakespeare community… A once in a generation–or several generations–find.” –The New York Times Dennis McCarthy presents the gripping true story of Sir Thomas North, the scholar-knight who transformed the most thrilling and shocking moments of his life into plays later adapted by Shakespeare. Working from a series of manuscript discoveries that have garnered worldwide attention (including coverage in The New York Times, The Guardian, Time Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Boston Globe Magazine, U.S. News, etc.), McCarthy provides numerous proofs that North wrote more than thirty plays, mostly for the Earl of Leicester’s theater troupe, years before Shakespeare reached London. Then, in the 1590s and early 1600s, Shakespeare reworked North’s plays for the public stage. Newfound proofs of North’s authorship include Shakespearean passages and scenes found in his unpublished handwritten travel journal. North wrote the diary to record his wondrous experiences in Italy—and then transformed some of his entries into elaborate set-pieces in the plays. North also used certain texts from the North family library as a playwright’s workbook, writing out marginal comments in the books to underscore the events, characters, and speeches he intended to dramatize. One of these books includes North’s entire outline of the historical plot of a Shakespeare play. Perhaps most significantly, Thomas North demonstrates that North actually lived the plays before he wrote them and that even many of the most iconic scenes in the canon derive from striking events that North actually experienced. The book also reveals for the first time North’s historical involvement in the Essex Rebellion and why neither he nor Shakespeare was punished for the treasonous play, Richard II. Thomas North also examines many hundreds of lines and passages that have been taken from North’s published prose translations and recycled in Shakespeare’s plays, most of which are unique, occurring nowhere else in the history of English literature. As the book confirms, no one has borrowed more from an earlier writer than Shakespeare has from North, and it is not even close. Finally, Thomas North includes documentation indicating North was a playwright for Leicester’s Men and explains why so many playwrights of the era (like North) never published their plays. It also shows how, to meet increasing public demand, the commercial theater companies began to revive plays previously performed at court, private manors, and universities. As part of this London-wide pattern of revivals, Shakespeare purchased and reworked North’s old dramas, resulting in the most celebrated works of literature in English history. In truth, scholars have always known that Shakespeare frequently adapted old plays. They just never knew who had written them. With Thomas North, the mysteries that have plagued Shakespeare studies for centuries now finally have an answer.
