65. Richard III begins - Now is the winter of our discontent

from Shakespeare Closely Read · host Mark Naftel

Concluding thoughts on Henry V. Introduction to Richard III, one of the great stage villains of all times.  I discuss whether Richard was in fact a such a villain.  For further reading, I suggest "To Prove a Villain," by Dr LIttleton and Dr Rea: https://www.amazon.com/Prove-Villain-Case-King-Richard/dp/B0010VUIYQ/ref=sr_1_2?crid=128NL4OMYSIES&keywords=To+prove+a+villain%3A+the+case+of+King+Richard+III&qid=1646423913&sprefix=to+prove+a+villain+the+case+of+king+richard+iii%2Caps%2C163&sr=8-2 Video production of the play can be currently found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMNNyda3sCk
