Synopsis
The "Longman Cultural Editions" series presents the only paperback edition of both parts of "Henry IV" published in one volume, together with relevant literary and historical contextual materials that illluminate without overwhelming the primary texts. This edition presents both parts of Shakespeare s "Henry IV" plays in the authoritative Bevington edition, tracing the full course of Prince Hal s ambiguous journey from prodigal youth to his role as King Henry V, as well as the controversial career of the tavern king, Sir John Falstaff. Contextual materials emphasize the plays historical background, Shakespeare s transformation of his sources, and the intellectual controversies that are embodied in the dramatic action. One Longman Cultural Edition can be packaged at no additional cost with any volume of "The Longman Anthology of British Literature" by Damrosch et al., or at a discount with any other Longman textbook."

Book Description
A new approach to critical analysis is offered by this interpretation of the play as an exploitative sequel issued in response to the popularity of the First Part, which was itself a remake of an old, non-Shakespearean play.
From the Publisher
The stirring continuation of the themes begun in Henry IV, Part One again pits a rebellion within the State and that master of misrule, Falstaff, against the maturing of Prince Hal. Alternating scenes between bawdy tavern and regal court, between revelry and politics, Shakespeare probes at the sources, uses, and responsibilities of power as an old king dies and a young king must choose between a ruler's solemn duty and a merry but dissipated friend, Falstaff. The play represents Shakespeare at the peak of his maturity in writing historical drama and comedy.
