Shakespeares Richard II was first published, in quarto, in the year 1597. A second edition appeared in the following year. In the year 1608 a thifd edition was published, as the title-page informs us, With new additions of the Parliament Sceane and the deposing of King Richard. These new additions amount to 165 lines, viz. lines 154-318 in the first scene of the fourth act, from May it please you, lords to a true King sfall. Were these lines in reality newly added to the play, or did they form part of it as originally written, and omitted for whatever reason in the two first editions? We incline to the latter alternative, because they agree exactly in style, diction, and rhythm with the rest of the play, and because in line 321 the Abbot says, A woeful pageant have we here beheld, nothing having occurred which could be called a pageant, if the deposition were omitted. This part of the scene was probably omitted in the representation for fear of giving offence at Court, because any reference to the deposition of an English sovereign (even when, as in this case, the sympathies of the audience are enlisted on behalf of the deposed monarch), would be treading on dangerous ground at a time when the Pope and other Catholic princes were constantly exhorting the subjects of Elizabeth to depose her. The fourth quarto, printed from the third, appeared in 1615. The play, as given in the first folio [1623], was no doubt printed from a copy of the fourth quarto, corrected with some care and prtpared for stage representation.

Richard II (6 January 1367 - c. 14 February 1400), also known as Richard of Bordeaux, was King of England from 1377 until he was deposed in 1399. Richard's father, Edward the Black Prince, died in 1376, leaving Richard as heir apparent to King Edward III. Upon the death of his grandfather Edward III, the 10-year-old Richard succeeded to the throne. During Richard's first years as king, government was in the hands of a series of regency councils, influenced by Richard's uncles John of Gaunt and Thomas of Woodstock. England then faced various problems, most notably the Hundred Years' War. A major challenge of the reign was the Peasants' Revolt in 1381, and the young king played a central part in the successful suppression of this crisis. Less warlike than either his father or grandfather, he sought to bring an end to the Hundred Years' War. A firm believer in the royal prerogative, Richard restrained the power of the aristocracy and relied on a private retinue for military protection instead. In contrast to his grandfather, Richard cultivated a refined atmosphere at court, in which the king was an elevated figure, with art and culture at its centre.

King Richard II is a history play written by William Shakespeare around 1595. The play, which is the first in Shakespeare's Henriad tetralogy, details the last two years of King Richard's life. William Shakespeare, the Bard of Avon, is known for his many sonnets and plays that have stood the test of time. Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon. He married at a young age and had three children. At age 21, Shakespeare began to have success in his business venture, an acting company known as the King’s Men. He also began writing at this time and would ultimately complete many of the most famous works in all of literature. Shakespeare's plays were well-loved from the beginning and even today his popularity remains unparalleled. The cause of Shakespeare's death is unknown, but he is honored today in Westminster Abbey in the Poet’s Corner.
