Blog Prompt 4: King Henry IV Part 1

Bloggers, this week I want you to try something very specific. Use the concordance (in the tools section at the top right of the blog site) to find an example of the word "redeem" (or its cognates--redeeming, redeem'd) that appears in the play. Then tell me something about the play's philosophy of redemption--and whether it accords with the character's usage of that term.

This is the kind of prompt that could easily turn into a full-length paper, but keep yourself to 300 words. And use quotations, both from the passage you've chosen and elsewhere.

Sorry this was late getting posted. I had a truly catastrophic episode of stomach flu yesterday afternoon/evening. Stay well!
