| Abstrakt: | A literary criticism is presented of the play "The Famous History of Sir Thomas Wyatt" by Thomas Dekker and John Webster. According to the author, in this play, the semiotics of the head is a symbol of political power and also powerlessness. The term "crown" oscillates between its metaphorical and literal meaning in the play. |
