Includes index.
This edition of Richard II features a version of the text based on the early quartos and first Folio of 1623, with thorough accompanying material for readers, students, and performers. The introduction describes the play's historical circumstances, both the period that it dramatises (the start of the 'wars of the roses') and the period in which it was written (late Elizabethan England), and the play's political significance in its own time and our own. It also focuses on the play's richly poetic language and its success over the centuries as a play for the stage. It also contains an extensive explanatory note help readers at all levels understand and appreciate the language, characters, and dramatic action and a careful analysis of textual issues for those interested in the transmission of the text.
