Book Description
Excerpt from The Life and Death of King John: With an Introduction and Notes Scene, the revolted lords, with Prince Henry, are found assembled round John's death-bed as he expires in great agony. The Play closes with the news that the Dan phin is setting out on his return, and with preparations for the King's funeral and his son's accession to the throne. Having now traced the course of the Play, it will be convenient for us to notice the main deviations from history which, for one cause or other, Shakespeare has chosen to make.

Book Description
Excerpt from Shakespeare's History of the Life and Death of King John The text of this edition of King John is based on that of the folio of 1623, collated with the leading modern editions. The chief variœ lectiones are mentioned in the Notes, and the few passages which present special difficulties (like i. I. 139, ii. I. 184, iii. I. 250, v.4. II, etc) are discussed at some length. The expurgation has been limited to the omission of a single line in i. I. A large part of that scene (say from line 49 to the end) may well enough be skipped in reading the play in schools or "Shakespeare clubs," but it is too intimately connected with the plot to be spared from the printed text. The engravings, most of which are from Knight's "Pictorial Sliakspere," are meant to be "illustrations" in the strict sense of the term. The figures of historical characters are from their monumental effigies and other contemporaneous representations. For the cut 011 page III, which will give a general idea of the military and priestly costume of the period, see p. 176, note on Saint Edmundsbury. The "Room of State" on p. 41 is an ideal sketch, but is in keeping with the architecture of John's time. The view of Angiers (p. 51) is from an old print. The book, like its predecessors, is meant to be complete in itself. The references to other volumes of the series are for the most part to longer notes which it did not seem best to reprint, though they may be of interest to the teacher or student who will take the trouble to look them up.
