|  | | | In Brief
This work concerns "the reign of Henry IV, first of the Bourbon rulersof France. . . . Introductory chapters deal with the early life of 'le vert galant,' but the emphasis is on the period of Henry's reign as king and, withinthis span, there is further emphasis on Henry's military exploits." (Choice) Bibliography.
| | | | From The Publisher
This edition of Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part 1 uses a variety of approaches to Shakespeare, including historical and cultural studies approaches. Shakespeare's text is accompanied by an intriguing collection of thematically arranged historical and cultural documents and illustrations designed to give a firsthand knowledge of the contexts out of which Henry IV, Part 1 emerged. Hodgdon's intelligent and engaging introductions to the play and to the documents (most of which are presented in modern spelling and with annotations) offer a richly textured understanding of Elizabethan culture and Shakespeare's work within that culture.

Flippantly remarking that "Paris is worth a mass," Henry converted to Catholicism, bringing the Bourbons to the throne in 1589 and establishing a dynasty that would rule, not without interruption, until 1830

"Knowing I lov'd my books, he furnish'd me
From mine own library with volumes
that I prize above my dukedom."
"And this our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything."
"Our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything."
"Some men never seem to grow old. Always active in thought, always ready to adopt new ideas, they are never chargeable with foggyism. Satisfied, yet ever dissatisfied, settled, yet ever unsettled, they always enjoy the best of what is, are the first to find the best of what will be."
"Speak to me as to thy thinkings,
As thou dost ruminate, and give thy worst of thoughts
The worst of words."
"My words fly up, my thoughts remain below:
Words without thoughts never to heaven go."
"I understand a fury in your words,
But not the words."
"It is a kind of good deed to say well; and yet words are not deeds."
"To be a well-flavored man is the gift of fortune, but to write or read comes by nature."
