Although several editions of Richard 111 provide significant criticism, since they are readily available in both single volumes and collected works, I have ex- cluded them from this study. have also excluded commentary upon stage history, stage and film performances, and reviews in order to concentrate upon criticism and historical commentary more directly concerned with interpretation of the text. Finally, I reluctantly omitted unpublished theses because in the inevitable process of s~lection, the great quantity of published criticism took precedence. This study has three major objectives. First, it is intended to pro­ vide scholars with ready access to a wide range of Richard I I I criticism published in books and journals. Many excellent Shakespeare bibliograph­ ies exist, of course, but sections on Richard II I are often limited by the inclusionary scope of these volumes. Other bibliographical sources for Richard I I I criticism, while abundant, are disseminated among i i i (usually) annual bibliographies in periodical publications or within the documentation of books and articles. A second major objective is to provide scholars with an overview of major trends and directions of Richard I I I criticism since World War I I. The year 1945 not only marks an obvious turning point in world history which has profound implications for literary study, but it also denotes the beginning of 11 Tillyardian'' criticism of Shakespeare's history plays with the publication of E. M. W. Tillyard's The Elizabethan World Picture (1943) and Shakespeare's History Plays (1944). The second of these is particularly relevant to this dissertation, for undoubtedly no other critic since World War 11 more greatly influenced the criticism of the histories, for good or ill. 1 A third objective is to evaluate the quality of Richard II I criti- cism from 1945 to 1980. Therefore Chapter VI is a critical bibliography in which, after identifying the main issues of each reference, I then point o,ut the merits of the work based upon the significance of its con- tribution to Richard I I I criticism, the degree to which it fulfills its stated purpose, and its quality relative to other works within this bib- 1 iography. All documentation in the body of this study is placed in parentheses within the text and refers to Chapter VI by item number and date.

RICHARD I II: A CRITICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY FROM 1945 TO 1980 31 INDEX 191 vi CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION The end of World War I I marked the appearance of a number of impor­ tant works of criticism which treated Shakespeare 1 s history plays in general and which had profound and lasting effects upon the direction of such criticism for decades to come. Perhaps the most influential of these early critical ideas has been E. M. W. Tillyard's formulation of the Tudor Myth (I tern 7, 1944), a scheme of orthodox po 1itica1 and re 1 i - gious doctrine promoted by the Tudor monarchs to justify their claim to the throne. In Shakespeare's history plays Tillyard found that this scheme influenced Shakespeare's historical interpretation as well as in his dramatic tendencies, for his major sources (in the First Tetralogy primarily Edward Hall's The Union of the Noble and lllustre Famelies of Lancastre and Yorke, 1548, and Raphael Holinshed's second edition of The Chronicles of England, Scotlande, and lrelande, 1587, among others) glorify the Tudor monarchs; whose dynasty was providentially established by Henry VI I. By the grace and design of God, according to the Tudor Myth, Henry delivered England from the monstrous tyrant, King Richard I II, by defeating him at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485. The hos­ tile image of Richard I I I Shakespeare acquired ultimately from Polydore Vergil's Anglica Historia (1534) and Sir Thomas More's The History of King Richard I I I (1513). Vergil's work is unabashed Tudor propaganda, while More's has come to be viewed as a genuine work of art, but they 2 both represent Richard II I not only as the standard tyrant~ but also as an instrument of God's punishment of England in retribution for the unlawful deposing of the anointed King Richard I I in 1399. With Richard I ll 1 s death and the Lancastrian Henry's marriage to Elizabeth York, the agonizing punishment of the internecine Wars of the Roses ends, and a chastised England enters into the new Tudor era of national unity, peace, and prosperity. (For commentary upon Richard I I l's historical person as opposed to his image in Shakespeare's Richard_l_l_I, see the fol­ lowing entries in Chapter VI: Items 22, 1951; 39, 1954; 46, 1955; 82, 1959; 90, 1961; 100, 1962; 106, 1963; 111' 1964; 118, 1965; 125, 1966; 128, 1965; 142, 1968; 144, 1968; 157, 1971; 165, 1972; 176, 1973; 190, 1975; 192, 1975; 209, 1977; 210, 1977; 211' 1977; 212, 1977; 214, 1977; 219, 1977; 222, 1978; 225, 1978; 233, 1978; 236, 1979.) Such is the overriding theme, indeed, the informing vision, which Tillyard established as central to all other considerations in Shake­ speare's history plays, and in none of the plays is this historical scheme more significant than in Shakespeare's Richard I I I. For the rise and fall of Richard, occurring as it does at this particular historical juncture and taking this particular form, was viewed by Shakespeare's contemporaries as having nothing less than apocalyptic overtones. Of course critics have disputed the prominence of this scheme in Shake­ speare's histories, but Tillyard 1 s work remains a catalyst and a con­ stant referent for history play criticism. Closely following Tillard 1 s lead, John Palmer (Item 8, 1945) admits the prominence of the Tudor Myth in Shakespeare's history plays, but more closely limits Richard Ill's motives to psychological realism and political expediency than to Providence or Fortune. Another standard 3 work in the Tillyardian mold is Lily B. Campbell's study (Item 11, 1947) of the history plays. She strongly emphasizes Shakespeare's primary con­ cern with history and politics and his secondary concern with the plot­ ting of the story, but Hardin Craig (Item 13, 1948) was one of the first to concern himself with the relationship between the history plays and the great tragedies.

  • How Has Your Understanding of Ambition and Identity Been Informed by Exploring the Connections Between Richard III and Looking for Richard?
    How has your understanding of ambition and identity been informed by exploring the connections between Richard III and Looking for Richard? Ambition and identity are two contextually transcendent facets of the human condition. This becomes apparent through the comparison of Shakespeare’s King Richard III (RIII) and Al Pacino’s “Looking For Richard” (LFR) as both texts explore the dynamics of ego, villainy, self-identity and representation of gender, yet are structurally, technically and contextually unalike. RIII is an English play from the late sixteenth century written for the stage, whereas LFR takes the form of an American docudrama which reshapes these core values of RIII in a modern setting. My understanding of RIII is also supported by Dr. Ian Frederick Moulton’s paper “‘A Monster Great Deformed’: The Unruly Masculinity of RIII.” One aspect of identity employed by Richard to achieve his ambitions is gender identity. Richard’s own masculinity is exhibited as he indulges in a hubristic soliloquy after ‘winning’ Lady Anne: “Was ever woman in this humour wooed? Was ever woman in this humour won?” Anaphora and rhetorical questioning emphasises Richard’s growing ego and hypermasculine disregard of women. Richard further displays his masculine identity by feigning feminine vulnerability – using gender identity and the personification of ‘beauty’ as a means of manipulation: “Nay, do not pause, for I did kill King Henry, but ‘twas thy beauty that provokèd me.” Moulton expands on this, “By offering Anne his sword, [Richard] stages a calculated (and illusory) gender reversal”. In LFR, director Al Pacino deliberately selects specific scenes from RIII to assess the relevance of Shakespeare in twenty first century America.

  • The Moral Basis of Family Relationships in the Plays of Shakespeare and His Contemporaries: a Study in Renaissance Ideas
    The Moral Basis of Family Relationships in the plays of Shakespeare and his Contemporaries: a Study in Renaissance Ideas. A submission for the degree of doctor of philosophy by Stephen David Collins. The Department of History of The University of York. June, 2016. ABSTRACT. Families transact their relationships in a number of ways. Alongside and in tension with the emotional and practical dealings of family life are factors of an essentially moral nature such as loyalty, gratitude, obedience, and altruism. Morality depends on ideas about how one should behave, so that, for example, deciding whether or not to save a brother's life by going to bed with his judge involves an ethical accountancy drawing on ideas of right and wrong. It is such ideas that are the focus of this study. It seeks to recover some of ethical assumptions which were in circulation in early modern England and which inform the plays of the period. A number of plays which dramatise family relationships are analysed from the imagined perspectives of original audiences whose intellectual and moral worlds are explored through specific dramatic situations. Plays are discussed as far as possible in terms of their language and plots, rather than of character, and the study is eclectic in its use of sources, though drawing largely on the extensive didactic and polemical writing on the family surviving from the period. Three aspects of family relationships are discussed: first, the shifting one between parents and children, second, that between siblings, and, third, one version of marriage, that of the remarriage of the bereaved.

  • 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.

  • King Richard Iii/Looking for Richard
    ENGLISH: KING RICHARD III/LOOKING FOR RICHARD Wherefore art thou Richard? There is no doubt that William Shakespeare’s King Richard III is relevant to twentieth century society; however, with changing contexts and values, its accessibility has been somewhat hindered. So, how do we solve this? Maise Smith explores this classic play in a contemporary environment. In his latest film, notable actor and director Al Pacino embarks on a quest in search of Richard, made famous as the Machiavellian of literary genius William Shakespeare’s King Richard III. Don’t know it? Read on. Looking for Richard follows Pacino as he questions the misunderstanding and disinterest surrounding Shakespeare’s collective work, and attempts to find contemporary meaning within King Richard III. It combines the general public’s opinion; experts conversing on Shakespeare’s context, meaning and use of techniques; and a filmic enactment of the original play. To understand the connections between the two texts, we must first look into Pacino’s purpose for creating a contemporary insight into such a classic play. The voxpops entwined throughout the movie depict the views of the American public, the overwhelming majority of whom possess a negative and ignorant perspective on his accessibility, and therefore relevance. Pacino takes it upon himself to counter this; to make Shakespeare accessible, and therefore relevant, aptly adopting the more prevalent medium of film to reflect his ideas. So, the question now evolves from “what are the connections between King Richard III and Looking for Richard?” to “what are the connections between King Richard III and the average, contemporary American viewer?” Answering the second aspect of the question invites a discussion of Pacino’s filmic choices.

Instead, what makes this play great are Shakespeare’s craftsmanship and innovation. Richard, Duke of Gloucester is one of the greatest anti-heroes in the theater. Shakespeare prac- tically invents for the stage the notion that our main fi gure can be villainous and yet, somehow, likable. Why? Because he’s entertaining, he’s funny, he’s wicked, and he speaks to us directly. The anti-hero is a creation that has stood the test of time. My favorite period of Shake- speare in performance is the era in which troupes of actors toured the California gold rush towns. Their productions were deeply important to these guys in the middle of nowhere trying to strike it rich.

For more than forty years this was our home in all that the word implies, and I do not believe that there was ever a moment when it was not the predominating influence in page 2 / 485 Richard's life and in his work. As I learned in later years, the house had come into the possession of my father and mother after a period on their part of hard endeavor and unusual sacrifice. It was their ambition to add to this home not only the comforts and the beautiful inanimate things of life, but to create an atmosphere which would prove a constant help to those who lived under its roof--an inspiration to their children that should endure so long as they lived.

  • The Tragedy of King Richard III by William Shakespeare
    1 Shakespeare – live The Tragedy of King Richard III by William Shakespeare Historical background The real-life Richard III was born in1485. He was Edward IV’s brother and Richard, Duke of York’s third son. Upon Edward’s death in 1483 he imprisoned his nephews in the Tower of London, announced that they had died there and proclaimed himself King of England. In 1485 Richard III was killed during the Battle of Bosworth Field, at the hand of Henry Tudor (Earl of 5 Richmond) who was later to become Henry VII. In the period after his death Richard was often portrayed negatively, attacked or defamed in literary and historical accounts, particularly Thomas More’s ‘History of Richard III’, which was also a source for Shakespeare’s play. Later historians have attempted to clear his name to some degree, notably Horace Walpole in his 10 ‘Historic Doubts on the Life and Death of Richard III’. However, Richard III remains one of the most controversial figures in English history. The play The Tragedy of King Richard III is considered a historical tragedy. After Hamlet, it is Shakespeare’s second longest drama and yet it is one of his most often performed plays. There are at least half a dozen film versions of the play, in which some of the stage’s best actors have played major roles. 15 The drama unfolds in five acts, beginning with the exposition and the complication of the plot within the first two acts. Typically, the climax comes at the end of Act III. The dénouement and the finale follow in the remaining two acts.
