""The Authorship of the Second and Third Parts of King Henry VI"" is a book written by C. F. Tucker Brooke. The book is an in-depth analysis of the authorship of the second and third parts of William Shakespeare's play ""King Henry VI"". Brooke explores the controversy surrounding the authorship of these plays, which have been attributed to Shakespeare but have also been suggested to have been co-written by other playwrights of the time. The book examines the language, style, and themes of the plays, as well as historical and biographical evidence, to determine the likelihood of Shakespeare's sole authorship. Brooke also discusses the significance of this controversy for the study of Shakespeare's works and the history of English drama. Overall, ""The Authorship of the Second and Third Parts of King Henry VI"" is a comprehensive and scholarly examination of a longstanding debate in Shakespearean scholarship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
