The Life and Death of King Richard II

Description
"The Life and Death of King Richard II" is a historical play written by William Shakespeare, believed to have been composed around 1595. The play chronicles the events surrounding the reign of King Richard II of England, focusing particularly on his downfall and deposition.
At the beginning of the play, Richard II is depicted as a young and arrogant king who believes in the divine right of kings and the absolute power of the monarchy. However, his rule is soon challenged by rebellious nobles, including Henry Bolingbroke (later King Henry IV), who accuses Richard of mismanagement and tyranny.
As the power struggle intensifies, Richard's authority begins to unravel, leading to his eventual deposition and imprisonment. The play explores themes of political legitimacy, divine providence, and the nature of kingship, raising questions about the relationship between rulers and their subjects.
