Fortunes Of Falstaff by John Dover Wilson
A concise, scholarly study tracing the origins, textual history, dramatic function, and theatrical reception of Shakespeare’s comic knight, examining how his character is shaped across the Henry plays and The Merry Wives of Windsor; it combines close readings, source-criticism, and discussion of performance to show how textual variants and changing audience attitudes have affected his moral ambiguity, comic vitality, and relationship with Prince Hal.
