The young King Richard has legitimately inherited the throne, yet
he rules with self-serving arrogance, neglects his subjects and
spends liberally. Tensions among the nobility mount as his
favoritism and miscalculations turn many against him. When he is
forced to cover his involvement in the murder of his uncle he
banishes two nobles, Henry Bolingbroke and Thomas Mowbray, Duke of
Norfolk. But Bolingbroke soon returns, enraged that Richard has
seized property and wealth that he had rightfully inherited.
Despite his tyrannical behavior, Richard is defended by many as
God's chosen ruler. But, having created a rift in the nobility that
will continue to fester for a hundred years, Richard has also set
in motion the events that may cost him the crown. Written entirely
in verse, Richard II is one of Shakespeare's finest history plays.
