Richard II - William Shakespeare - Bog

af William Shakespeare
Richard II af William Shakespeare
Bag om Richard II

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.

William Shakespeare var en berømt engelsk digter, skuespiller og dramatiker født i 1564 i Stratford-upon-Avon. Shakespeare var forfatteren under den elizabethanske og jakobeanske tidsalder af britisk teater, hvor han skrev produktivt. Hans klassiske digte forbliver også populære i dag. Shakespeare har tilsammen 38 skuespil, 2 fortællende digte, 154 sonetter og en række andre digte. Hans originale manuskripter af skuespillene eksisterer ikke, men takket være en gruppe skuespillere fra Shakespeares kompagni, har vi halvdelen af stykkerne. Alle hans skrifter er samlet i forskellige iterationer af “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare”. Hans sonetter er udgivet af Thomas Thorpe i 1609 og efterfølges af det lange digt “A Lover’s Complaint”, som udkom på samme tid. Seks af hans yderligere populære sonetter optræder i Shakespeares skuespil: “Romeo og Julie”, “Henry V” og “Love’s Labour's Lost”. Den første udgivne værk af Shakespeare var, “Venus og Adonis”...
