必读历史剧经典,莎翁不朽之作。
《亨利四世》是莎土比亚最著名的英国历史剧之一。描写亨利四世在位时期,青年王子亨利(即位后叫亨利五世)的活动。剧本一方面通过描写亨利王子平定北方大贵族的叛乱来表现统一王权对封建割据势力的胜利;另一方面描写王子同福斯塔夫一伙人始而交往,终于断绝关系的过程,来表示一个英明君主的成长。
Shakespeare’s art of mingling comedy, history and tragedy reached its peak in the two parts of King Henry the Fourth. As history, the plays paint a panorama of England, embracing a wider social range than any previous historical drama as the action moves from court to tavern, council chamber to battlefield, city to country, Archbishop and Lord Chief Justice to whore and thief. As comedy, they tell the story of a prodigal son’s journey from youth to maturity and an old rogue’s art of surviving by means of jokes, tall tales and the art of being not only witty in himself but ‘the cause that wit is in other men’. As tragedy, they reveal the slow decline of a king who cannot escape his past, the precipitate demise of an impetuous young warrior who embodies both the glory and the futility of military heroism, and the heart-breaking dismissal of a substitute father who has loved a prince with a warmth of which his true father is incapable.
