David Scott Kastan lucidly explores the remarkable richness and the
ambitious design of King Henry IV Part 1 and shows how these
complicate any easy sense of what kind of play it is.
Conventionally regarded as a history play, much of it is in fact
conspicuously invented fiction, and Kastan argues that the
non-historical, comic plot does not simply parody the historical
action but by its existence raises questions about the very nature
of history. The full and engaging introduction devotes extensive
discussion to the playas language, indicating how its insistent
economic vocabulary provides texture for the social concerns of the
play and focuses attention on the central relationship between
value and political authority.
