Histories, Vol. 2: Volume 2; Introduction by Tony TannerKnopf Doubleday Publishing Group, 1994 - 778 頁 William Shakespeare arrived at his splendid maturity as an artist in his second cycle of history plays.

And thanks to parts one and two of Henry IV our literature is graced—in the figure of the dissolute and boastful knight Sir John Falstaff—with one of the greatest comic creations in the history of the stage. |
