    The second cycle of Shakespeare histories (Richard II, 1 and 2 Henry IV, Henry V) is presented in a new perspective by extending it to include the earlier Reign of King Edward the Third and The Merry Wives of Windsor, so as to create a single dramatic continuum with the five histories as acts and the comedy as the final jig What holds them together is Shakespeare's attitude toward the concepts of policy and honor, reflected both in the figure of Falstaff as anti-hero, and in the open or covert allusions to the Order of the Garter, which is the "figure in the carpet" of the sextet Shakespeare tackled the issues of policy and honor confronted by power when he was "re-making" the old play Woodstock as Richard II and The Famous Victories of Henry the Fifth as Henry IV and Henry V. It is argued that Henry IV was originally written as a single play, but, because of the presence of the character of Sir John Oldcastle, Shakespeare was forced to rewrite the play with Sir John Falstaff instead. The success of the ampler role given to the latter prompted the addition of a sequel (Part Two)
