The introduction considers the political and religious background of the play, its pageant-like structure and visual effects, and its varied ironies. The commentary is detailed but concise, explaining difficult passages and contemporary references, and suggesting how the play might have been staged in an Elizabethan theater, or might still be staged for a modern audience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51942409503008,"sku":"NEW0521296927","price":15.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/king-henry-viii-the-new-cambridge-shakespeare-0521296927","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
