QR code
"Henri V" by William Shakespeare is a history play written circa 1599. It follows the young King Henry V of England as he leads an expedition to France, claiming the French throne through ancestral right. Despite being vastly outnumbered, Henry and his army face the French at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415. The play charts Henry's transformation from the wild youth of earlier plays into a decisive military leader who must
inspire his troops and shoulder the moral weight of kingship. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
