The First Part of Sir John Oldcastle: A Historical Drama is a play co-authored by Michael Drayton, Anthony Munday, Richard Hathway, and Robert Wilson. The play is set in 15th century England and follows the life of Sir John Oldcastle, a prominent figure in English history who was a close friend of King Henry V. The play explores Oldcastle's role in the Lollard movement, a religious reform movement that advocated for the translation of the Bible into English and other reforms within the Catholic Church. The play also touches on themes of loyalty, betrayal, and political intrigue as Oldcastle finds himself at odds with the Church and the King. The play was first performed in 1600 and is considered a significant work in the canon of Elizabethan drama. This edition of the play is edited by John Robertson Macarthur and includes an introduction and notes on the historical context and literary significance of the play.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
