More troubled and troubling than King Henry IV Part 1, the play continues the story of King Henry's decline and Hal's reform. Though Part 2 echoes the structure of the earlier play, it is a darker and more unsettling world, in which even Falstaff's revelry is more tired and cynical, and the once-merry Hal sloughs off his tavern companions to become King Henry V.

James C. Bulman's authoritative edition provides a wealth of incisive commentary on this complex history play.

Industry Reviews

"Bulman's commentary notes are exhaustive, and he highlights many previously unnoted moments of chronicle history influence ... Bulman's new Arden edition does not merely give textual scholars a tight text and graduate students an authoritative survey of sources and theatrical history. It also effectively argues that we should reevaluate the position of 2 Henry IV within the canon. This masterful edition was well worth the wait." -Shakespeare Quarterly

James C. Bulman's edition of Shakespeare's King Henry IV, Part 2 includes an extremely informative introduction which breathes new life into this often-neglected play. Bulman expertly navigates the difficult textual terrain--neither the Quarto (which appeared in two issues) nor the Folio provides a fully authoritative copy text--explaining the rationale for his decisions in a detailed but accessible appendix. - Studies in English Literature 1500-1900
