The fourth of this series of lectures examines the nature of Shakespeare’s ten plays on English kings and their coverage of 400 years of power struggles. It shows how their discourses were affected by the Elizabethan world-view/ perception of history, and also seeks to illustrate their creative art, the breadth of their historical and social canvas and their uniquely English being.
