III. Richard İngiliz tarihindeki en kötü şöhretli krallardan biridir. İki yeğeni, karısının eski kocası ve onun eski kayınpederinin ölümü de dahil olmak üzere bir dizi cinayetten suçlanmaktadır. Bu cinayetlerin tamamı tahtı ele geçirmek ve elinde tutmak için gerçekleştirmiştir. Yaklaşık iki yıl tahtta kalan ve güvenilir tarihi belgelere göre hiç de başarısız bir yönetim göstermeyen bu kralın böylesine kötü bir şöhrete sahip olmasının nedeni William Shakespeare’in III. Richard oyunundaki baş karakterdir. Yazar bu oyunu Richard’ın doğal düşmanı olan Tudor hanedanı döneminde yazmıştır. Yararlandığı tarihi kaynaklar ve dönemin siyasi ortamı gereğince Shakespeare bir ulusal kahramandan ziyade bir canavar yaratmak zorundaydı. Sonuç olarak Iago ve Lear’ın kızları (Goneril ve Regan) kadar kötü ancak onlardan daha renkli bir karakter ortaya çıkmış oldu. Bununla birlikte, Shakespeare'in metninde birçok abartı ve tutarsızlık bulunmaktadır. III. Richard’ın abartılı kötülüğü, fiziksel yetersizliğinin psikolojisi üzerindeki etkisiyle açıklanabilir. Ayrıca, Richard’ın acımasız ve erkeksi davranışlarının toplumsal beklentilerden etkilendiği de açıkça görülmektedir
Richard III is one of the most disreputable kings of British history. He is accused of a series of murders, including the death of his two nephews, his wife's former husband and every former father-in-law, all for one reason; to seize and hold the throne. The reason why this king, who was on the throne for about two years and, according to the reliable historical documents, did not showed an unsuccessful management, has such a bad reputation is William Shakespeare's main character in Richard III. The author wrote this play during the reign of Richard's natural enemy, the Tudors. Because of the resources he used and the political environment of the time, Shakespeare had to create a monster, not a national hero. As a result a character who is as evil as Iago and Lear's daughters (Goneril and Regan), but more colourful than them, emerged. However; Shakespeare's text has many exaggerated and inconsistent aspects. The exaggerated evil of Richard III can be explained by the impact of his physical disability on his psychology. Besides it is clear that his cruel and masculine behaviors were influenced by social expectations
