TY - GEN T1 - King Richard III A1 - Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616 LA - English PP - Auckland, N.Z. PB - Floating Press YR - 2008 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_ocn650308958 AB - Richard III belongs to Shakespeare's folio of King Richard plays, and is the longest of his plays after Hamlet. It is classified variously as a tragedy and a history, showing the reign of Richard III in an unflattering light. The play's length springs in part from its reference to the other Richard plays, with which Shakespeare assumed his audience would be familiar. These references and characters are often edited out to create an abridged version when the play is performed for modern audiences.
