Shakspere's Holinshed: The Chronicle And The Historical Plays Compared is a book written by W. G. Boswell-Stone that provides a detailed analysis and comparison of William Shakespeare's historical plays with the source material he used, namely Raphael Holinshed's Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland. The book delves into the historical accuracy and artistic license taken by Shakespeare in his plays, such as Richard III, Henry IV, and Macbeth, and how he adapted the source material to create his own unique versions of historical events. Boswell-Stone also explores the cultural and political context of Shakespeare's time, as well as the literary techniques and themes used in his plays. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Shakespearean literature and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
