《亨利四世》是英国剧作家威廉·莎士比亚创作的戏剧，分为上、下篇，首次出版于1598年。
《亨利四世》主要描写了亨利四世与各个王子和反叛诸侯的斗争。莎士比亚打破了传统，在整部作品中只有两条主线：亨利四世的生活、福斯塔夫的生活，通过展现二者不同的生活来逐渐推动作品情节的发展，进而展示出文章的主题。 该剧具有历史剧和喜剧的双重性质，融崇高典雅与幽默诙谐于一体。
波林勃洛克率众反叛理查，即位为亨利四世。在《亨利四世》上篇里，新即位的国王面临着威尔士、苏格兰和诺森伯兰的反叛（分别由葛兰道厄、道格拉斯、霍茨波三人发动）。由于理查的死所引起的负疚，以及目睹霍茨波（气度不凡、举止庄重）同自己的亲身儿子威尔士亲王哈尔（他在肥猪般的福斯塔夫骑士的带领下同一伙流氓成天混迹于依斯特溪泊的野猪头酒家）的巨大反差所产生的忧虑，他身患重病，不能在镇压反叛中起较多作用。福斯塔夫与哈尔的关系（从这种关系中，哈尔学会了一个贤明君王应有的真正道德本质）是全剧的核心。在第五幕，索鲁斯伯雷一战，哈尔显示了自己的才干，率领父亲的军队打败和杀死了霍茨波。
在《亨利四世》下篇，哈尔的兄弟兰开斯特率军镇压叛乱（此次由诺森伯兰和约克大主教发动），而哈尔开始逐渐摆脱福斯塔夫。因为负债，福斯塔夫受到了被捕的威胁，他去葛罗斯特郡招募军队，并参加了保王党，与他那个饶舌的老朋友夏禄法官待在一起。在约克郡，兰开斯特设计使叛军放下武器，然后将其围捕。此时，亨利王已病入膏肓，但依然不能放心让哈尔继承王位。他忧心忡忡地入睡，这时哈尔拿走了王冠。当他醒后，哈尔终于将他说服，自己已完全变了人样，适合做一国之君。亨利死去，哈尔与宿敌大法官媾和，同意采用法治。在登基时，福斯塔夫上前搭讪（他从葛罗斯特郡赶来，满以为能晋封高官）。然而，哈尔拒绝了他。过去的已消逝，英格兰在新的明主统治下获得新生，它的荣耀因即将开始的哈尔同法国的战争得到恢复。
Henry IV is a play created by the British playwright William Shakespeare. It is divided into two parts, the first and the second. It was first published in 1598.

Henry IV mainly depicts Henry IV’s struggle with various princes and rebellious lords. Shakespeare broke tradition and only has two main lines in the entire work: the life of Henry IV and the life of Falstaff. By showcasing the different lives of the two, the plot of the work is gradually promoted, thereby showcasing the theme of the article. [1] This drama has the dual nature of a historical drama and a comedy, blending sublime elegance with humor and humor.

Pauline Block led a rebellion against Richard and ascended to the throne as Henry IV. In the first chapter of Henry IV, the newly enthroned king faced rebellions in Wales, Scotland, and Northumberland (launched by Glandou, Douglas, and Hotsberg respectively). Due to the guilt caused by Richard’s death, as well as the anxiety caused by witnessing the huge contrast between Hotspur (with extraordinary demeanor and dignified demeanor) and his own son Prince of Wales, Hal (who, under the leadership of the fat boar like Falstaff Knight, roams the boar head restaurant in Ester Creek), he is seriously ill and cannot play a significant role in suppressing the rebellion. The relationship between Falstaff and Hal (from which Hal learned the true moral essence of a wise king) is the core of the entire drama. In the fifth act, during the Battle of Sorusbury, Hal demonstrated his talents by leading his father’s army to defeat and kill Hotsberg.

In the second part of Henry IV, Hal’s brother Lancaster led an army to suppress the rebellion (this time launched by Northumberland and the Archbishop of York), while Hal gradually began to shake off Falstaff. Due to debt, Falstaff was threatened with arrest. He went to Groucestershire to recruit troops and joined the Royalist Party, staying with his talkative old friend Judge Charlotte. In Yorkshire, Lancaster designed to cause the rebels to lay down their weapons and then surround them. At this point, King Henry was critically ill, but he still couldn’t trust Hal to inherit the throne. He fell asleep anxiously, as Hal took away the crown. When he woke up, Hal finally convinced him that he had completely transformed and was suitable for being the ruler of a country. Henry died, and Hal made peace with his old enemy, the Grand Justice, agreeing to adopt the rule of law. When he ascended the throne, Fostav approached and chatted up (he came from Gloucestershire, fully expecting to be promoted to a high position). However, Hal refused him. The past has disappeared, and England has gained new life under the rule of a new Ming dynasty. Its glory has been restored by the upcoming war between Hal and France.
