The authoritative edition of Richard II from The Folger Shakespeare Library, the trusted and widely used Shakespeare series for students and general readers. Shakespeare's Richard II presents a momentous struggle between Richard II and his cousin Henry Bolingbroke. Richard is the legitimate king; he succeeded his grandfather, King Edward III, after the earlier death of his father Edward, the Black Prince. Yet Richard is also seen by many as a tyrant. He toys with his subjects, exiling Bolingbroke for six years. When he seizes the title and property that should be Bolingbroke's, Richard threatens the very structure of the kingdom. Bolingbroke returns with an army that is supported by nobles and commoners alike, both believing themselves oppressed by Richard. This sets the stage for a confrontation between his army and the tradition of sacred kingship supporting the isolated but now more sympathetic Richard. This edition includes:

Shakespeare, William
William Shakespeare nasceu em abril de 1564 em Stratford-upon-Avon. Depois de casar-se com Anne Hathaway em 1582 e ter três filhos com ela, William mudou-se para Londres. Em poucos anos, seu nome passou a ser reconhecido no teatro londrino, como ator e como dramaturgo. Foi nesse cenário que ele produziria algumas das mais celebradas peças de todos os tempos, entre elas: Ricardo III (1592), Tito Andrônico (1594), Romeu e Julieta (1595), Sonho de uma Noite de Verão (1595), O Mercador de Veneza (1596), Hamlet (1601), Macbeth (1603), Otelo (1604), Rei Lear (1605) e A Tempestade (1611). Com o tempo, Shakespeare prosperou financeiramente e passou a investir parte de sua riqueza em imóveis de Stratford. Depois de sua aposentadoria do palco, Shakespeare voltou a sua cidade natal, onde morreu em 23 de abril de 1616. |
