HenryoVIII
|
|
(1613) One of Shakespeare's last works, if not the last. It was included in the *First Folio, but its uneven quality has caused some to see it as a collaboration, perhaps with John Fletcher (see *Beaumont and Fletcher). A performance of the play was the indirect cause of the destruction of the *Globe. The plot deals with the fall of Wolsey, the king's divorce and the advancement of Anne Boleyn.
