British History: Royals, Rebels, and Romantics

Double, Double, Kings in Trouble: James I, Lear, and Macbeth (ep 173)


Listen Later

Double, double, toil and trouble is not so far removed from what becomes a modern chant, remember, remember the 5th of November. As always, history shows us what’s possible. And in 1605 and 1606, Shakespeare gives voice to the terrors of the time in plays that continue to enthrall us today: King Lear and Macbeth.
