ENGC10H3 Lecture 11: Lecture 11 Notes
Document Summary
Different types of fathers chosen vs. natural. Falstaff outside his tavern element he s on the battlefield now. Imposter kings people pretending to be kings on the battlefield. Play is part of a longer set of 2 plays no sense of closure here because it s first of two plays. Falstaff jeopardizes harry s authority: harry is changing from his former self. Worcester says harry wasn t true to his word. Justifications for rebellion if someone breaks the rules, they deserve to be deposed. King henry says they re only inciting people who want rebellion for rebellion s sake to make their own drab lives interesting. Harry praises hotspur like how henry does praising, kind address to his rival. Honour is substanceless like air yet people are dying for this word: falstaff doesn t care about principles. He s a man of words, substance, bodily pleasure, etc.
