Koning Hendrik de Vierde by William Shakespeare
"Koning Hendrik de Vierde" by William Shakespeare is a historical play written in 1596-1597. It follows Prince Hal, a wild young heir who spends his time in taverns with criminals and the notorious Sir John Falstaff, even helping rob his own father's treasury. As rebellion threatens King Henry IV's unstable throne, the dissolute prince must transform from reckless youth into noble leader. The play innovatively blends history with comedy, alternating between palace
intrigue and tavern humor, culminating in the historic Battle of Shrewsbury where loyalties and honor are tested. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
