King John

Resumo

"King John" by William Shakespeare is a history play written in the mid-1590s about the turbulent reign of England's King John. When France demands John surrender his throne to his nephew Arthur, political alliances shift like sand. Excommunication, war, betrayal, and disputed succession collide as nobles switch sides, armies clash, and the Pope intervenes. With his mother dead and his kingdom crumbling, John faces invasion, rebellion, and the ultimate price of power in this tale of legitimacy and loyalty. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
