The English History Play In The Age Of Shakespeare by Irving Ribner is a comprehensive study of the historical plays written during the Elizabethan and Jacobean eras in England. The book explores the genre of history plays, its development, and its significance during the time of Shakespeare. Ribner examines the various themes and motifs that are common in these plays, such as the portrayal of monarchs, the use of supernatural elements, and the depiction of political power struggles. The author also provides a detailed analysis of some of the most famous history plays of the time, including Shakespeare's own works, such as Richard III, Henry IV, and Henry V. Ribner's book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of English drama, the literary culture of the Renaissance, and the political and social context of the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
