In act four, scene one of Shakespeare’s Richard II, Richard’s lengthy monologues as Henry Bolingbroke attempts to get him to revoke the thrown serve as a metaphor for the entire play. Lines 194 to 214, specifically, after Bolingbroke asks King Richard if he is “contented to resign the crown?” capture the complicated the relationship between the two men and the crown (4.1.193). Richard’s willingness to step down from the thrown is debatable through his reaction to Bolingbroke’s question.…

stories of conquest that are often taught in school. These accounts are heavily in favor of the settlers and paint Native Americans as the savage evildoers hell-bent on ruining lives. This is why the Lancaster Treaty of 1744 is so important to American history. The minutes from the meeting in Lancaster detail a peaceful but powerful commentary about land disputes between the Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia…

Marissa Robles ENGL 3000 February 2, 2017 Richard II Assignment Evidence Richard’s Mistakes In speaking of the Duke of Gloucester’s death, Mowbray says, “I slew him not; but to my own disgrace / Neglected my sworn duty in that case”. (1.1.136-37). Richard banishes Bolingbroke: Therefore, we banish you our territories: You, cousin Hereford, upon pain of life, Till twice five summers have enrich'd our fields. (1.3.436-38). John of Gaunt speaks about Richard while on his death bed:…

In this following paper I will discuss my court visits on September 30th and October 19th at the Lancaster Court House. The first hearing I saw was an estate hearing in courtroom six on the third floor with Judge Jay J Hoberg. The hearing was only an about an hour long but to me it was very informative. As I mentioned earlier it was an estate hearing for a petition to have will moved to New Jersey, there was a jurisdiction error. There was no defendant, the party in contradiction of a claim that…

order to return and reclaim his birthright. However, unlike Richard, Bolingbroke continues to demonstrate the highest respect and understanding of the law, as he argues “As I was banished, I was banished Duke of Herford; but as I come, I come from Lancaster”. In denying Bolingbroke his legacy Richard displays a flagrant disregard for the law of primogeniture, the very law “that sustains his rights to the throne. “For how art thou a king but by fair sequence and succession?” Initially York feels…

“His deputy anointed in His sight, / Hath caused his death, the which if wrongfully, / Let heaven revenge, for I may never lift / An angry arm against his minister.” (1.2.38-41). This is the first concrete example of King Richard’s loss of power. John of Gaunt says to the Duchess of Gloucester that he refuses to exact revenge against Richard, even though Richard is probably behind the murder of his brother and her husband Gloucester, because Gaunt still believes that Richard was appointed to the…

On the surface King Richard II seems a straightforward depiction of an unfit King’s steady stream towards being deposed. Shakespeare’s lack of favoritism gives a documentary point of view, yet commotional drama of a daytime soap opera. Shakespeare’s elegant style leaves some doubt for the reader to be ‘all in’ with Bolingbroke taking over despite his heroic attributes and the follies of Richard. The play opens with King Richard’s continuing follies: covers up his Gloucester’s assassination,…

mixed feelings in me. Lancaster uses harsh words to describe the slums of Dharavi. However, the conditions of these slums are so bad that it is hard to use any other words. Lancaster did not include something he should have, a quote from someone who lives in the slums. Lancaster wrote this piece attempting to invoke understanding about Dharavi. Lancaster specifically targeted the environmental way of life the Dharavi people immerse themselves in. It is hard to argue that Lancaster is biased…
