Shakespeare and the Theme of Stolen Kingdom

Chapter Three explores Shakespeare's theme of the 'stolen kingdom' in the poems and plays. Beginning with Hamlet's declaration 'the time is out of joint. O cursed spite that I was ever born to set it right,' the analysis begins with 'Lucrece,' and touches on the 'stolen kingdom' theme in various plays, including Hamlet, Macbeth, Julius Caesar, The Winter's Tale, Othello, and others  concluding with Cardenio.
