La seconda opera della tetralogia di Shakespeare che tratta della Guerra dei Cent'anni e della Guerra delle due rose, Enrico VI Parte seconda è probabilmente la migliore introduzione al genio del drammaturgo come scrittore di opere storiche. Questa edizione di Shakespeare della Penguin è curata da Norman Saunders con un'introduzione di Michael Taylor. 'La mia bocca sarà il parlamento di Enland'Enrico VI viene ingannato e sposa Margaret, amante del conte di Suffolk, che spera di governare il regno attraverso la sua influenza. C'è un grande ostacolo sul cammino di Suffolk, tuttavia: il nobile Lord Protettore, che ordina astutamente di assassinare. Dopo aver scoperto questo tradimento, Enrico bandisce Suffolk, ma con la scomparsa del suo Lord Protettore, il giovane e ultraterreno re deve affrontare la sua sfida più grande: un'imminente guerra civile e la crescente minaccia della Casa di York. Questo libro include un'introduzione generale alla vita di Shakespeare e al teatro elisabettiano, un'introduzione separata a Enrico VI, Parte seconda, una cronologia, suggerimenti per ulteriori letture, un saggio di Rebecca Brown che discute le opzioni di rappresentazione sia sul palcoscenico che sullo schermo e un commento. William Shakespeare (1564-1616) nacque da John Shakespeare e Mary Arden verso la fine di aprile del 1564 a Stratford-upon-Avon. Scrisse circa 38 opere teatrali (il numero preciso è incerto), molte delle quali sono considerate le opere drammatiche più eccezionali mai prodotte, tra cui Romeo e Giulietta (1595), Enrico V (1599), Amleto (1601), Otello (1604), Re Lear (1606) e Macbeth (1606), oltre a una raccolta di 154 sonetti, che rientrano tra le poesie d'amore più profonde e influenti in lingua inglese. 'Andiamo da Shakespeare per scoprire qualcosa su noi stessi' Jeanette Winterson.
