From the rear cover
Shakespeare's King John is a curious play in that it has no obvious villain or hero, though the King himself shares some of the qualities of both. From the point of view of a modern reader, brought up to regard the wresting of Magna Carta from King John as the most important event in his reign, Shakespeare's complete omission of any mention of this aspect of King John's struggle with the barons will also seem odd.
