Unrelated question but do you have advice on how to read Shakespeare’s history plays? I have little issue getting into the tragedies and comedies but the histories are particularly difficult. I’ve just started reading Henry IV part 1 and I’m not really seeing where the story is going so far. I did read Richard II first so I don’t think it’s continuity I’m missing.
Also what is your opinion on the novels that uses stream of consciousness. It l think it’s very boring yet my English professor keeps assigning them. It just feels like I’m reading hundreds of pages of people thinking without anything really happening.

You have to read Richard II before Henry IV, parts 1&2, and Henry V

Stream-of-consciousness novels only appeal to narcissist introverts

I see why you think Shakespeare isn’t Prospero, he warns fernando not to fornicate with Miranda or be cursed… which Shakespeare himself did with Ann Hathaway… unless Florio is Shakespeare which I m increasingly coming to believe.
