Richard III
This is an excerpt from the paper...
The play Richard III by Shakespeare portrays the life of Richard III who played an important role in the Wars of the Roses. He seized the throne after basically declaring himself protector of his nephews, later pronouncing them dead in the Tower of London and declaring himself king. While there are many portrayals of Richard III that denigrate him as a human being and as a leader, there are more benevolent versions of this ruler than Shakespeare’s which portray him not as a blood-thirsty monarch, but rather an often adequate leader who had to act violently in a violent time. This essay will argue the fact that Richard does shrewdly manipulate Anne in his wooing of her, however, he does it so well psychologically that the real dilemma is not whether Anne should kill him but a battle within Anne herself between her desire for revenge and her natural instincts of morality and charity.
