The Life of Henry the Fifth
Hello my friends and readAARs, welcome to my tale. Yes I have gone and finally done it, not content with my own meager language and creativity I have decided to plagiarise on of the most famous people, let alone writers, in our history, Shakespeare.
Ever since I was a boy I have loved the writing’s of “The Bard”, I loved his use of language, such a “strange” way of words for our modern minds. This is why I have decided to do this, I know many on these forums probably know a lot more about the man and his works than me, but I would love to spread his words. I am changing the narrative, but will leave the dialogue alone. Only changing in one or two instances. For example, this AAR is set in the early 1919/1920 so there will be tanks rarther than Knights and so on….
I hope that people who know this play well will read for a different “angle” on the work… as I also hope that some who do not know of the play, or those who may have been put off by the “language” may find my telling a way to approach the great work…
I’ll try not to be condescending and leave the dialogue mostly “unmolested”, please tell me if I am over explaining the language, or if you do not understand any of the passages.
Lastly, the updates should be quick in coming, but short in duration… and I hope that I can do the man justice.
And now on with the show, I must explain that apart from the actors, there is also the “Chorus” that basically provide the narrative… they have an important role in the play, and I have chosen to use my own words here, and so we begin.
