  • Theatricality and Historiography in Shakespeare's Richard
    H ISTRIONIC H ISTORY: Theatricality and Historiography in Shakespeare’s Richard III By David Hasberg Zirak-Schmidt This article focuses on Shakespeare’s history drama Richard III, and investigates the ambiguous intersections between early modern historiography and aesthetics expressed in the play’s use of theatrical and metatheatrical language. I examine how Shakespeare sought to address and question contemporary, ideologically charged representations of history with an analysis of the characters of Richard and Richmond, and the overarching theme of theatrical performance. By employing this strategy, it was possible for Shakespeare to represent the controversial character of Richard undogmatically while intervening in and questioning contemporary discussions of historical verisimilitude. Historians have long acknowledged the importance of the early modern history play in the development of popular historical consciousness.1 This is particularly true of England, where the history play achieved great commercial and artistic success throughout the 1590s. The Shakespearean history play has attracted by far the most attention from cultural and literary historians, and is often seen as the archetype of the genre. The tragedie of kinge RICHARD the THIRD with the death of the Duke of CLARENCE, or simply Richard III, is probably one of the most frequently performed of Shakespeare’s history plays. The play dramatizes the usurpation and short- lived reign of the infamous, hunchbacked Richard III – the last of the Plantagenet kings, who had ruled England since 1154 – his ultimate downfall, and the rise of Richmond, the future king Henry VII and founder of the Tudor dynasty. To the Elizabethan public, there was no monarch in recent history with such a dark reputation as Richard III: usurpation, tyranny, fratricide, and even incest were among his many alleged crimes, and a legacy of cunning dissimulation and cynical Machiavellianism had clung to him since his early biographers’ descriptions of him.

    THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES PROB 11/76/403 1 ________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY: The document below is the will, dated 12 December 1589 and proved 9 December 1590, of Sir John Arundel (d. 17 November 1590) of Lanherne, the son of John Arundel (d.1557) and Elizabeth Danet. On 20 June 1571 the testator was appointed surveyor of Oxford’s lands in Cornwall and Devon, and in 1575 purchased all Oxford’s manors in Cornwall. The testator’s wife, referred to in the will as ‘Lady Anne Stourton’, who died in 1602, was the daughter of Edward Stanley, 3rd Earl of Derby, and the widow of Charles, Lord Stourton, who had been hanged at Salisbury in 1557 for murdering his steward. John Stourton (1533-1588), the son of Lady Anne and Charles, Lord Stourton, married Lord Cobham’s daughter, Frances Brooke (b.1562) in 1579. After John Stourton’s death, Frances married Sir Edward More (d.1623), who was named one of the executors in the 1612 will of Oxford’s widow, Elizabeth Trentham (see TNA PROB 11/121/171). Francis Brooke’s twin sister, Elizabeth Brooke (1562-1597), was the wife of Oxford’s brother-in- law, Sir Robert Cecil (1563-1612). For the Stourtons and Brookes, see McKeen, David, A Memory of Honour: The Life of William Brooke, Lord Cobham, (Salzburg: Institut fur Anglistik und Amerikanistik, 1986) Vol. 2, pp. 418-19. From the ODNB: Stanley, Edward, third earl of Derby (1509–1572) . After Wolsey's fall the remaining year of Derby's wardship was bought for 3500 marks by Thomas Howard, third duke of Norfolk (1473–1554); according to a royal pardon of February 1530, he was ‘abducted’ and married to ‘Katharine, daughter of the said Thomas’ (LP Henry VIII, vol.

  • The Subjectivity of Revenge: Senecan Drama and the Discovery of the Tragic in Kyd and Shakespeare
    THE SUBJECTIVITY OF REVENGE: SENECAN DRAMA AND THE DISCOVERY OF THE TRAGIC IN KYD AND SHAKESPEARE JORDICORAL D.PHIL THE UNIVERSITY OF YORK DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH AND RELATED LITERATURE SEPTEMBER 2001 But all the time life, always one and the same, always incomprehensibly keeping its identity, fills the universe and is renewed at every moment in innumerable combinations and metamorphoses. You are anxious about whether you will rise from the dead or not, but you have risen already - you rose from the dead when you were born and you didn't notice it. Will you feel pain? Do the tissues feel their disintegration? In other words, what will happen to your consciousness. But what is consciousness? Let's see. To try consciously to go to sleep is a sure way of having insomnia, to try to be conscious of one's own digestion is a sure way to upset the stomach. Consciousness is a poison when we apply it to ourselves. Consciousness is a beam of light directed outwards, it lights up the way ahead of us so that we do not trip up. It's like the head-lamps on a railway engine - if you turned the beam inwards there would be a catastrophe. 'So what will happen to your consciousness? Your consciousness, yours, not anybody else's. Well, what are you? That's the crux of the matter. Let's try to find out. What is it about you that you have always known as yourself? What are you conscious of in yourself? Your kidneys? Your liver? Your blood vessels? - No.

CONCLUSION BIBLIOGRAPHY 118 in CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION During the last twenty-five years Shakespeare scholars have puolished at least five major works which deal extensively with Shakespeare's history plays. In addition, many critical articles concerning various aspects of the histories have been published. Some of this new material reinforces traditional interpretations of the history plays; some offers new avenues of approach and differs radically in its consideration of various elements in these dramas. King John is probably the most controversial of Shakespeare's history plays. Indeed, almost everything touching the play is in dis- pute. Anyone attempting to investigate this drama must be wary of losing his way among the labyrinths of critical argument. Critical opinion is amazingly divided even over the worth of King John. Hardin Craig calls it "a great historical play,"^ and John Masefield finds it to be "a truly noble play .

  • Six Wills Relating to Cobham Hall
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 11 1877 ( 199 ) SIX WILLS RELATING TO COBHAM HALL. THE six testators whose wills we now print were, all of them, owners of Cobham Hall, during the sixteenth or seventeenth centuries, and all, save one perhaps, had resided therein. Their wills are given in the order of their dates, and succeed one another as follows:— 1. William Brooke, Lord Cobham.. 2. Trances, Countess of Kildare, wife of Henry Lord Cobham. 3. Prances Stuart, Duchess of Richmond and Lenox. 4. Charles Stuart, Duke of Richmond and Lenox. 5. Sir Joseph "Williamson. 6. Lady Catherine O'Brien. Eor copies of three of these wills (Nos. 2, 3, and 4) we are indebted to the courtesy of Mr. James Grreen- street, who kindly transcribed them for us at Somerset House. I have prefixed memoirs of the testators, and have appended to the wills such notes as seemed to be necessary. Copies of the wills of Sir Joseph Williamson and Lady Catherine O'Brien, are among the Earl of Darnley's archives at Cobham Hall. Lord Darnley courteously permitted me to transcribe them. Of William Lord Cobham's will, there is a copy in the British Museum (Lansdowne MS. No. 830), whence I transcribed it. W. A. SCOTT ROBERTSON. 200 WILLS RELATING TO COBHAM HALL. WILLIAM BROOKE, LORD COBHAM. This able and accomplished nobleman was eldest of the ten sons of George Brooke, Lord Cobham, by his wife Ann, daughter of Edmond first Baron Bray and co-heir of John, the Second Lord Bray. Upon the magnificent tomb which William Brooke erected, in Cobham Church, to the memory of his parents, he emblazoned nine of the eleven armorial quarterings to which his mother was entitled; she died in September, 1559, and he celebrated her praises in some Latin verses, which have been thus happily rendered by Mr.
