| General note | The 2 parts first appeared separately and anonymously in 1594 and 1595 under titles: The first part of the contention betwixt the two famous houses of Yorke and Lancaster ; and, The true tragedie of Richard Duke of Yorke, and the death of good King Henrie the Sixt. They form the basis of Shakespeare's Henry VI, parts 2 and 3. The authorship of this play and its relation to Shakespeare's version are much disputed; cf. NUC pre-1956. |
