Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Famous History of the Life of King Henry the Eighth: A Historical Play, as Arranged for the Stage The Famous History of the Life of King Henry VIII. Is not the least popular of Shakespeare's historical plays. It is held by many that Shakespeare was assisted in the composi tion of this play by a younger dramatist, Fletcher. There is no direct evidence whatever of this; the opinion has been formed from a comparison of certain scenes in the play with the style and metre of Fletcher's work. Of this I am assured, that the play is touched by Shakespeare's genius; and if Fletcher was associated in the work, he must have been, as Mr. Hudson says, surprised out of himself. The picture of the Tudor period is so vivid, and the characterization at times so remarkable, that the revival of the play will, I trust, be welcome. The tragic interest ceases with the death of Katharine; but it will doubtless be recognised that the intention of the poet is to contrast, in the christening of Elizabeth, the sorrowful death of the divorced Queen with the brief triumph of Anne Bullen. I wish to express my indebtedness to Mr. Seymour Lucas, for his patient research and artistic skill, and to the many others who have rendered me valuable aid.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's History of King Henry the Eighth This edition of Henry the Eighth has been prepared on the same plan as those of The Merchant of Venice and The Tempest, and I have little to add by way of preface beyond a grateful acknowledgment of the kindness with which the series has thus far been received. As in the case of the former plays, the text is the result of a careful collation of the Folio of 1623 with all the modern editions that have any critical value. With very few exceptions, the variations from the Folio, however trivial, have been mentioned in the notes, together with the readings adopted or proposed by the leading commentators. 'These textual questions are of interest to every student of Shakespeare, and my experience as a teacher has satisfied me that they may be profitably discussed even by boys and girls at school. Indeed, it sometimes happens that these babes in criticism are quick to see what is hidden from men reputed "wise and prudent." Their young eyes discern the simple truth through all the dust that successive generations of learned editors have raised in' their quarrels about it. In the Notes I have often referred the reader to illustrations of Shakespeare's English in the earlier books of the series, and the space thus gained has been used for historical annotations. The material for these has been drawn from a great variety of sources, and has been very carefully worked up. There are, of course, many notes which many of my readers will not need, but I think there are none that may not be of service, or at least of interest, to some of them.

Download or read book A Study of Shakespeare's Henry VIII written by Cumberland Clark and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 1931 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Shakespeare's Henry VIII King john is in the nature of a Prologue. A strong antipathy to the power of the Church and the authority of Rome is expressed in this play, and the subject is then dropped until it is taken up again in the relation of the struggle between the adherents of the Old Faith and the New in Henry VIII, which may be described as the epilogue to the historical dramas. Shakespeare ends his sequence with the christening of the infant Princess Elizabeth, at the actual dawn of what was the modern era of his own day. 'this little one shall make it holiday', runs the last line of the King's speech, which concludes the play. In an age very soon after that of the old Miracle and Mystery Plays, which were designed to teach the multitudes Biblical stories and history in the only way they could comprehend them, visually, the Dramatist taught his contemporaries the stirring history of their own land for the past hundred and fifty years, covering a period of the greatest impor tance and interest in the chronicles of this country since the Norman Conquest. Shakespeare was a close and accurate copyist wherever the plot of his drama was founded on historic fact as set forth by an historian. But with the alchemy of his genius he transformed the sober narratives of Holinshed, Hall, and Cavendish into a moving pageant of that colourful epoch. The imagination of the Poet clothed the dry facts with an inspiring splendour, a nobility, and moving tragedy which metamorphosed them and imbued them with human interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry VIII - William Shakespeare - King Henry VIII has one of the fullest theatrical histories of any play in the Shakespeare canon, yet has been consistently misrepresented, both in performance and in criticism. This edition offers a new perspective on this ironic, multi-layered, collaborative play, revealing it as a complex meditation on the progress of Reformation which sees English life since Henry VIII's day as a series of bewildering changes in national and personal allegiance and represents 'history' as the product of varied and contradictory testimony. McMullan makes a powerful claim for the rehabilitation of Henry VIII, providing the fullest performance history of any edition to date and reading the work not as a marginal 'late' Shakespeare play but as a play which is paradigmatic of the achievement of Renaissance drama as a whole.`This is a staggeringly brilliant, captivating edition that will undoubtedly occasion a huge surge of critical interest in this neglected play. For those of use who have never taken Henry VIII very seriously ' perhaps dismissing it as a late collaborative play of no consequence or as conservative propaganda ' McMullan's introduction is genuinely revelatory.'Eric Rasmussen, University of Nevada at Reno, Shakespeare Survey
