Richard III, Character List House of York Richard III, Character List House of York King Edward IV David Annen Head of the House of York, Edward became King after a successful military campaign against the House of Lancaster. The battles between the Houses of York and Lancaster became known as the Wars of the Roses. Since defeating the Lancastrian army at Tewkesbury in 1471 his reign has been a peaceful one. At the beginning of the play King Edward is in ill health and nearing death. George, Duke of Clarence Scott Handy Brother of King Edward IV and Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Clarence was disloyal to his brother Edward during the Wars of the Roses, siding with Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick and the House of Lancaster for a time before returning to support his brother after the alliance proved unadvantageous. At the beginning of the play King Edward has ordered George be imprisoned for treason in the Tower of London following a rumour of a curse that prophesises a person known by the letter ‘G’ will murder the King’s heirs. Richard, Duke of Gloucester Ralph Fiennes Younger brother of King Edward IV and George, Duke of Clarence. Richard played a significant part in overthrowing the previous King Henry VI and establishing his brother Edward as King. Frustrated by his brother’s leadership and harbouring a deep-seated ambition for the throne he begins the play intent on seizing power at any cost. Duchess of York Susan Engel Wife of the deceased Richard, Duke of York and mother of Edward IV, George, Duke of Clarence and Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Queen Elizabeth Aislín McGuckin Wife to Edward IV, Elizabeth was previously married to the Lancastrian Sir John Grey. Following his death in battle her marriage to Edward IV caused great displeasure within the House of York. This was made worse by the fact that she is not of noble birth. She has a son from her first marriage, the Marquess of Dorset. Earl Rivers Joseph Arkley Brother of Queen Elizabeth and an enemy to Richard. Marquess of Dorset Joshua Riley Son of Queen Elizabeth by her first marriage; following the murder of the Princes in the Tower Dorset flees to France to join Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond and his army who will mount a campaign against Richard III. Prince Edward Lukas Rolfe, Baxter Westby First son of King Edward IV and Queen Elizabeth, Prince Edward is heir to the throne. Following the death of his father he is kept captive in the Tower of London with his brother Richard and eventually murdered. Richard, Duke of York Ben Barker, Oliver Whitehouse Second son of King Edward IV and Queen Elizabeth, Richard is murdered alongside his brother Prince Edward so that he does not pose a threat to Richard III’s seat on the throne. Richard’s Allies Duke of Buckingham Finbar Lynch Cousin of Edward IV, Clarence and Richard, Buckingham forms an alliance with Richard to support him in being crowned King. Buckingham is resolutely loyal and is promised lands by Richard for his help in persuading the court to petition Richard to take the throne. When Buckingham hesitates to agree to murder the Princes in the Tower, Richard turns on him and denies him the land he has been promised leading Buckingham to turn traitor and join the army rising against Richard. William, Lord Hastings James Garnon A close friend and supporter of King Edward, Hastings served as Lord Chamberlain during his reign. Hastings does not support Richard’s claim to the throne and as such stands in the way of Richard achieving the power he so desires. Catesby Daniel Cerqueira A loyal attendant and advisor to Richard, Catesby is a consistent supporter of Richard’s ascension to the throne and follows him into battle against Richmond. Ratcliffe Mark Hadfield Like Catesby, Ratcliffe is an attendant to Richard and loyal supporter. James Tyrrel David Annen An obedient subject who is tasked with arranging the murder of the Princes after Buckingham hesitates. House of Lancaster Queen Margaret Vanessa Redgrave Wife of the previous King Henry VI who was murdered in the Tower of London by Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Due to Henry VI’s frequent periods of mental illness and dislike of political conflict Margaret became responsible for leading the Lancastrian side during the Wars of the Roses. At the start of the play we are introduced to her as someone who has lost a husband, a son and the throne at the hands of Richard, Duke of Gloucester and is therefore incredibly vengeful. The curse she lays upon the House of York is steadily realised as the play unfolds. Lady Anne Joanna Vanderham Daughter of Richard Neville, the Earl of Warwick who was instrumental in bringing King Edward IV to the throne but later switched allegiances from the House of York to the House of Lancaster. Anne married the Lancastrian Prince Edward, son of the previous King Henry VI and Queen Margaret, who was later killed in battle at Tewkesbury by Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Like Margaret, Anne has good reason to despise Richard. Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond Tom Canton A descendant of Edward III’s 4th son, Richmond becomes the Lancastrian heir to the throne following the death of King Henry VI and his son Edward. Richmond fled to Brittany following the ascension of Edward IV to the throne. After 14 years of exile he is supported by the French to raise an army and challenge Richard’s right to rule England. The play ends with the Battle of Bosworth Field in which Richmond defeats Richard and seizes the throne. Richmond is crowned King Henry VII and marries Queen Elizabeth’s daughter, finally uniting the Houses of York and Lancaster. Neutral characters Lord Mayor Mark Hadfield The Lord Mayor of London is a neutral character who is convinced by Buckingham’s argument that Edward IV’s heirs are illegitimate and petitions Richard to take the throne. Bishop of Ely Simon Coates John Morton, the Bishop of Ely was previously a supporter of the House of Lancaster. He seems to side with Richard following Edward IV’s death but later flees England to join Henry, the Earl of Richmond and the army he is raising to challenge Richard. Lord Stanley Joseph Mydell Stanley is a member of the court and is stepfather to the Earl of Richmond. He remains neutral throughout the play until Richard threatens to kill his son if he does not remain loyal to him in the fight against Richmond. .

In other words, the principle of mutual respect for the rights of others underlies the social formula to which he subscribes. The criminal denies by his acts this ideal. But none of the criminals so far discussed are directly opposed to the fundamentals of this ideal state when judged by their actions.

  • 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.

As your Wars of the Roses chairs, Teo Lamiot and I have been working hard with our crisis director, Sofia Filippa, and SMUNC Secretariat members to make this conference the best yet. If you have attended SMUNC before, I promise that this year will be even more full of surprise and intrigue than your last conference; if you are a newcomer, let me warn you of how intensely fun and challenging this conference will assuredly be. Regardless of how you arrive, you will all leave better delegates and hopefully with a reinvigorated love for Model UN. My own love for Model United Nations began when I co-chaired a committee for SMUNC (The Arab Spring), which was one of my very first experiences as a member of the Society for International Affairs at Stanford (the umbrella organization for the MUN team), and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Later that year, I joined the intercollegiate Model United Nations team.

As members will have read in previous issues of the Bulletin a dedicated band of volunteers' led by Greta Turner, cleared the site and restored the moat, whjch was formally opened in 1994 (see Bulletin 284). The stewardship of this site represents an exciting venture and challenge for the Society. It is intended to be a focus for long term archaeological and documentary research of the site itself and its influence on and relationship to the surrounding area. The moat, which is a scheduled ancient monument in recognition of its archaeological importance, will be of particular interest to schools as it illustrates aspects of archaeology and man's use of the landscape.

  • The Beaufort Family
    FRIENDS OF WOKING PALACE The Beaufort Family The Beauforts were the children of John of Gaunt and his mistress, Katherine Swynford. Although the children were born whilst John was married to Constance, Queen of Castile, the line was legitimised by Papal Bull and Act of Parliament and became the House of Tudor in 1485 when Henry VII defeated Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field.

But his work has been preserved with all the fidelity permitted by its comparatively rough though otherwise complete condition. In preparing the plays for the press, I have confined my correc- tions to matters of fact, and where I differed from the Editor in matters of opinion, I did not feel justified in altering his words. While I have emended or ascertained the accuracy of nearly every quotation and reference, a very few remain which must be taken on his authority. In the third part I have had the great advantage of advice and help from the General Editor, Professor R. H. Case. C. K. Pooler] The text of j Henry VI. is from the Folio 1623. As was the case with Part II., it receives a few slight emendations from the Quarto (Q i, of which it is an expanded form) known as The True Tragedy (and forming the second part of The Whole Contention) which was first printed in 1595 with this title : The true tragedie of Richard Duke Yorke, and | of the death good King Henrie the Sixt, with the zuholc of | \ contentio?i hetweene the two Houses Lancaster and Yorke, \ | as it was sundrie times acted by the Right Honoura- ble | | the Earle of brooke his seruants.
