translation linked edit
The translation linked from this page is pretty inaccurate. Worth linking to in that it gets across a rough idea of the plot, but should be qualified. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kjb52 (talk • contribs) 17:06, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
wh... edit
Is there a reason this article doesn't contain Act IV, and the end of the play? Polyhymnia 21:56, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
Demonstrations at premier edit
The article mentions that there were demonstrations at the premier, and we have a nice piece of art up. How about a section on the riots? I recall vaguely hearing that the first line is an Alexandrine, plus an extra syllable, just to thumb his nose at classicism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaiguy (talk • contribs) 23:04, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- This page [1] has some information about it. (It also mentions a few details worth knowing if you want to understand the plot summary on the WP page.) --Syzygy (talk) 14:01, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
Ought to be clearer about the root of the controversy. A breach of classical vocabulary, I believe. Some mention of a dog? 86.176.178.94 (talk) 21:04, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
Fictional King? edit
The King of Spain in 1519 was, in fact, named Carlos, so why do we say he is fictional? Obviously he is a fictionalized version that has little in common with the historical Charles V, but it seems rather odd to call a king Carlos of Spain in a play set in 1519 "fictional." john k (talk) 14:15, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
