<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>More troubled and troubling than <i>King Henry IV Part 1</i>, the play continues the story of King Henry's decline and Hal's reform. Though Part 2 echoes the structure of the earlier play, it is a darker and more unsettling world, in which even Falstaff's revelry is more tired and cynical, and the once-merry Hal sloughs off his tavern companions to become King Henry V. <br/><br/>James C. Bulman's authoritative edition provides a wealth of incisive commentary on this complex history play.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Bulman's commentary notes are exhaustive, and he highlights many previously unnoted moments of chronicle history influence ... Bulman's new Arden edition does not merely give textual scholars a tight text and graduate students an authoritative survey of sources and theatrical history. It also effectively argues that we should reevaluate the position of 2 <i>Henry IV </i>within the canon. This masterful edition was well worth the wait." -<i>Shakespeare Quarterly</i> <p/>James C. Bulman's edition of Shakespeare's <i>King Henry IV, Part 2</i> includes an extremely informative introduction which breathes new life into this often-neglected play. Bulman expertly navigates the difficult textual terrain--neither the Quarto (which appeared in two issues) nor the Folio provides a fully authoritative copy text--explaining the rationale for his decisions in a detailed but accessible appendix. - <i>Studies in English Literature 1500-1900</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>James C. Bulman</b> <b>is </b>Henry B. and Patricia Bush Tippie Professor of English at Allegheny College, USA and was President of the Shakespeare Association of America (1998-99).
