The play is possibly the one noted by Philip Henslowe as \u2018Harey the vi\u2019, performed at the Rose Theatre on 3rd March 1592, when it may have been new: the success of this play and the character Talbot were referred to by Thomas Nashe, later in 1592.<\/span><\/p>

The play wasn\u2019t printed before appearing in the First Folio. It was probably typeset from manuscripts \u2013 either the drafts by Shakespeare and his collaborators, or a copy of the drafts \u2013 corrected by Heminge and Condell.\u2028<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Crises emerge following Henry V\u2019s death: at home, his infant son inherits the crown while rivals vie for political control; abroad, the English army faces fierce resistance from the French, led by Joan la Pucelle (Joan of Arc). As years pass, the two feuding houses of York and Lancaster emerge, and their quarrelling hampers the efforts of the beleaguered English forces in France. The play sees the weak Henry VI\u2019s efforts to make peace over-run by events.\u2028<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
