  <default_description>The stirring continuation of the themes begun in &lt;i&gt;Henry IV, Part One&lt;/i&gt; again pits a rebellion within the State and that master of misrule, Falstaff, against the maturing of Prince Hal.&#160;&#160;Alternating scenes between bawdy tavern and regal court, between revelry and politics, Shakespeare probes at the sources, uses, and responsibilities of power as an old king dies and a young king must choose between a ruler's solemn duty and a merry but dissipated friend, Falstaff.&#160;&#160;The play represents Shakespeare at the peak of his maturity in writing historical drama and comedy.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Elegiac, frustrating, and moving in just the same way a late installment of serial fiction can be today. For me the tavern scenes, especially Falstaff's bittersweet tete-a-tete with Doll Tearsheet, were particularly unsettling, as they labor to make the end of the road funny - and often succeed!

Presumably our high school's curricular committee picked this so as to represent his histories, hoping that the farcical character of Falstaff would entertain us.

Henry V does a great job showing us what kind of man he becomes once he makes the decision to abandon his wild ways and accept his role in the Monarchy of England. ]]></body>
