Henry V


I am very excited about the next course in our history sequence--the History of Tudor-Stuart England.  We will back up a bit and speak of the last great Medieval King, Henry V.  Shakespeare made this larger-than-life monarch even grander in his play, Henry V.   Kenneth Branagh's 1989 film adaptation of Shakespeare's work is one of my all-time favorite movies.  I think we will begin by setting aside an evening to watch the movie as a class.
