Shakespeare's Portrayal of Henry V as the Model Monarch In this essay I intend to show that Shakespeare portrays Henry as the Classic Sovereign as he is patriotic, brave, cunning, religious, natural leader & in touch with the lower class of the country. I will use quotes and remarks in the play to show this and present it.

During the Wars of Religion, from 1554 to 1648, the actions of Elizabeth I, Henry IV, Louis XIII, and Philip II all demonstrated their worthiness to be considered great rulers. Elizabeth I of England defeated the Spanish Armada, the strongest naval power the world had ever seen. Henry IV of France took many steps that eventually led to a religious agreement in France.

The question of this investigation is “How quintessentially absolutistic was Louis XIV’s reign?” This investigation is significant because it explores the extent to which Louis XIV was an absolute ruler through assessment of the validity of conflicting evidence in support of Louis XIV as a despotic ruler, a collaborative ruler, and an absolute ruler.
