Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the unconventional narrative structure of Shakespeare's The Third Part of Henry VI, addressing criticisms of its disregard for chronological order. Lawrence V. Ryan defends this approach, suggesting it enhances the play's dramatic and educational impact. He advocates for a suspension of disbelief, asserting that the play remains effective for theatrical performance. The analysis also highlights how Shakespeare's portrayal of historical events challenges traditional, providential interpretations of history, as noted by Bevington.
