== ''[[Henry IV]]'' by William Shakespeare ==

''[[Henry IV]]'' is the title of a set of two history plays by [[William Shakespeare]] (1564 – 1616)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Shakespeare], namely: ''''[[Henry IV, Part I]]'' and ''[[Henry IV, Part II]]''''.

While ''[[Henry IV ]]'' is usually used as a combined title, it is on occasion also found as the title for one of the plays.

'''See also individual entries under : ''[[Henry IV, Part 1]]'' and ''[[Henry IV, Part 2]]'''''

=== Translations and Adaptations ===

Translated into [[Afrikaans]] as ''[[Hendrik IV]]''

Translated into [[Setswana]] as ''[[Kgosi Henry wa Bone]]'' (1952) by [[M.O.M. Seboni].

Translated into [[Northern Sotho]] as ''[[Kgosi Henri IV]]'' (1973) by [[N.C. Phatudi]]

A number of operas by this name have been written over the years, most of them largely based on ''[[The Merry Wives of Windsor]]'', with material from Shakespeare's ''[[Henry IV]]'', (Parts I and II) added. Composers and librettists include Antonio Salieri and Carlo Prospero Defranceschi (1799); Michael William Balfe and S. Manfredo Maggione (1838); and Giuseppe Verdi and Arrigo Boito (1893). A "symphonic study" called ''[[Falstaff]]'' was also written by Edward Elgar in 1913.

Adapted as a stage play called ''[[Falstaff]]'' by [[Ian Ferguson]] in 1976, a combination of the "[[Falstaff]]" [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falstaff] scenes from Shakespeare’s plays ''[[Henry IV]]'' (parts 1 and 2) and ''[[The Merry Wives of Windsor]]''.

=== Performances ===

1853: Selections from what is referred to as ''[[Henry IV]]'' were performed in [[The Lyceum]] by the [[Port Elizabeth Dramatic Society]] on 22 October, followed by ''[[The Spare Bed]]'' (Fox Cooper), ''[[An Unwarrantable Intrusion]]'' ( Morton). This could have been selections from either one or both the ''[[Henry IV]]'' plays.
