William Shakespeare's Henry VIII
The Famous History of the Life of King Henry VIII (also known as All is True) was written in 1613, possibly to celebrate the Royal Wedding of one of King James’s daughters which took place that year. The play does not seem to have been published until 1623, when it appeared in the First Folio. It is the last of Shakespeare’s English history plays, and may also be the very last play he ever wrote, as he died just three years later. The Tempest, written around 1611, was the final work Shakespeare authored alone, but we know that after that he produced a few others collaboratively.

Some people use this to show heroism, while others have no right to cry out pain; some people are considered to be naturally sensitive to pain, while others seem to be particularly pain-resistant - what causes these differences? How do people handle themselves when they are in pain?

William Shakespeare's Coriolanus. Top Story - December 2023.
Written around 1608, Coriolanus was possibly William Shakespeare’s last tragedy. He wrote four such plays set in Ancient Rome, and coincidentally his first tragedy, Titus Andronicus, is also one of these. However, while Titus is not very accurate historically, for Coriolanus (as well as Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra) Shakespeare made extensive use of Plutarch’s Lives of the Most Noble Grecians and Romans which had been translated into English by Thomas North in 1579. Coriolanus does not appear to have seen print in Shakespeare’s lifetime, and the earliest text is from the posthumously-published First Folio of 1623.
