"Égaré par des favoris indignes et des ministres malhonnêtes, le roi Richard II s'est résolu à exiler son cousin Bolingbroke, petit-fils d'Edouard III. Il gouverne alors à sa guise, sans se préoccuper de la révolte qui gronde. Irrésolu, il hésite à réprimer la rébellion qui s'est déclarée au retour d'exil de Bolingbroke. Abandonné par les siens, il se voit contraint à l'abdication en faveur de son cousin. Abattu, misérable il ne retrouve sa dignité qu'au moment où entouré d'assassins, il se résout à la mort."

"King Richard confiscates estates and mortages his realm in order to raise funds for an Irish campaign. Bolingbroke and other powerful nobles make this a pretext for invading England during the King's absence. Learning of the rebellion, King Richard returns but his forces are not strong enough to cope with Bolingbroke, who forces Richard to abdicate in his favour."@en
"" Richard II, who ascended the throne as a child, is a regal and stately monarch. He believes he is the rightful ruler of England, ordained by God, yet he is a weak and ineffective king - wasteful in his spending habits, unwise in his choice of counsellors, and detached from his country and its people. When he seizes the land of his cousin Henry Bolingbroke, both the commoners and the barons decide that their king has transgressed. ... an intense psychological struggle as well as a taut political drama."--Pubisher."

"In the 20th century, it may seem natural enough to replace a bad ruler with a good one, but for the people of the 14th century, kings and queens ruled by divine right. A rebellion against even the most corrupt monarch (unless he was an unjust tyrany) was viewed as an uprising."@en

"Shakespeare's tale about King Richard II who is forced to abdicate after a rebellion, and who is then imprisoned and eventually murdered."@en
"Bolingbroke wrongly accuses Mowbray of killing the Duke of Gloucester, the uncle of King Richard II. The dastardly Richard (who in fact arranged the murder himself) then orders a trial by combat between Bolingbroke and Mowbray and turns this into exile for both of them. Bolingbroke's father, John of Gaunt, dies and Richard seizes his estates to pay for a campaign in Ireland. While Richard is off fighting the Irish, leaving the Duke of York as Regent, Bolingbroke invades England and the country rises in support of him. York vacillates, Richard lands in Wales, is arrested, and surrenders the crown to Bolingbroke, who becomes King Henry IV. A plot against Henry is discovered, Henry pardons his cousin Aumerle, but Richard is murdered while imprisoned at Pontefract."@en
