8 (1720U40-1) Henry IV Part 1 Either, 12. “In Henry IV Part 1 we witness on all levels the careless pursuit of personal honour.” Examine this view of the play. [75] Or, 13. “Instead of a history play relieved by comedy, we have a comedy with a sprinkling of history.” How far would you agree with this view of Henry IV Part 1? [75] The Tempest Either, 14. How far would you agree that “above all, The Tempest makes us question how best to rule and be ruled”? [75] Or, 15. “Although the island may appear to be a ‘brave new world’, the audience is under no illusion that there is anything brave or indeed anything new about it.” Discuss this view of The Tempest.
