About This Book

La pièce suit un monarque récemment devenu adulte qui, après une jeunesse dissipée, s'affirme en chef résolu en revendiquant un trône rival et en organisant une campagne militaire. Négociations politiques, conseils royaux et scènes de rassemblement des troupes alternent avec l’action du champ de bataille, qui culmine par un engagement décisif où stratégie et moral l’emportent malgré des forces supérieures. Un chœur encadre l’action et invite le public à combler par l’imagination l’étendue des événements condensés sur la scène. Des épisodes comiques parmi les soldats offrent un contrepoint humain, tandis que discours et moments privés examinent le fardeau et l’éthique du commandement.
