Shakespeare's Early History Plays: From Chronicle to Stage
Goy-Blanquet, Dominique (, Professor of Elizabethan Theatre, University of Picardie)
Like many of his fellow playwrights, Shakespeare turned to national history for inspiration. This book provides a comparison of the Henry VI plays and Richard III with their sources, demonstrating how Shakespeare was able to meet not only the ideological but also the technical problems of turning history into drama.
