Questa, delle opere storiche, è The Tragedy. Il Shakespeare più lirico mai scritto' Simon SchamaIl vecchio re Enrico IV, malato e stanco, deve inviare le sue truppe, tra cui l'indisciplinato Falstaff, per affrontare un'altra ribellione che minaccia di portare il paese sull'orlo della guerra civile. Ma mentre il conflitto cresce, deve anche affrontare un problema più personale: come far accettare al suo figlio problematico, il principe Hal, il suo dovere di erede e lasciare indietro i suoi compagni di baldoria. Mettendo a confronto la giovinezza con la vecchiaia, il figlio con il padre, la speranza spensierata con le realtà del governo, questo è un dramma elegiaco di pathos e rimpianto.
