- S 1 E 1 - Incertainties15 gennaio 201259minWhen Queen Elizabeth died without an heir, the English throne passed to the Scottish King James I. He was elusive, intellectual, and a foreigner with Catholic sympathies. Shakespeare responded with Measure for Measure, a play about regime change and political and religious tensions; Timon of Athens, about money, greed, and corruption; and King Lear, about a united England about to be divided.Questo video non è al momento disponibile
- S 1 E 2 - Equivocation15 gennaio 201259minAfter the Gunpowder Plot of 1605 attempted an assassination on King James's life, England entered a new age of conspiracy, anxiety, and equivocation. Shakespeare wrote Coriolanus, a tragedy about a leader who cannot equivocate; Antony and Cleopatra, reflecting England's nostalgia for Elizabeth; and Macbeth, about the worst crime imaginable: the murder of a king.Questo video non è al momento disponibile

The Tempest bristles with dynastic politics. And in Henry VIII, he reflected a final time on the transformational nature of leadership.Questo video non è al momento disponibile
