Thomas Lord Cromwell by William Shakespeare
"Thomas Lord Cromwell" by William Shakespeare is an Elizabethan history play published in 1602. The work dramatizes the life of Thomas Cromwell, the powerful minister who served King Henry VIII of England. Though attributed to "W. S." and later included in Shakespeare collections, modern scholars reject Shakespeare's authorship. The play's origins remain mysterious, with debates surrounding its date, authorship, and whether it represents a condensed two-part work or an unequal collaboration between
multiple writers. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
