Eminent Shakespearean scholars Jonathan Bate and Eric Rasmussen provide a fresh new edition of Richard II, chronologically the first of the eight plays in Shakespeare?s History Cycle, which marks the beginning of a great schism within the nobility of England that will leave the nation riven by bloody conflict for the next hundred years. This volume also includes more than a hundred pages of exclusive features, including:

? an original Introduction to Richard II
? incisive scene-by-scene synopsis and analysis with vital facts about the work
? commentary on past and current productions based on interviews with leading directors, actors, and designers
? photographs of key RSC productions
? an overview of Shakespeare?s theatrical career and chronology of his plays

Ideal for students, theater professionals, and general readers, these modern and accessible editions from the Royal Shakespeare Company set a new standard in Shakespearean literature for the twenty-first century.
