''Horestes'' is a late Tudor morality play by the English dramatist John Pickering. It was first published in 1567 and was most likely performed by Lord Rich's men as part of the Christmas revels at court that year. The play's full title is ''A new interlude of Vice containing the history of Horestes with the cruel revengement of his father's death upon his one natural mother.'' It has been proposed that John Pickering (John Pickeryng) is likely to be the same person as lawyer and politician Sir John Puckering. Source and text The play dramatises the story of the ancient Greek myth of Orestes. Rather than Aeschylus' trilogy of Athenian tragedies ''Oresteia'' (458 BCE), however, Pickering's source for his version of the story is William Caxton's translation of the French romance ''Recuyell of the Historyes of Troye'' (translated in 1475).

Northamptonshire (UK Parliament Constituency)
The county constituency of Northamptonshire, in the East Midlands of England was a constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of England, then of the Parliament of Great Britain from 1707 to 1800 and of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1801 to 1832 and was represented in Parliament by two MPs, traditionally known as Knights of the Shire. After 1832 the county was split into two new constituencies, North Northamptonshire and South Northamptonshire. Boundaries The constituency consisted of the historic county of Northamptonshire. Although the county contained a number of parliamentary boroughs, each of which elected one or two MPs in its own right for parts of the period when Northamptonshire was a constituency, these areas were not excluded from the county constituency. Owning freehold property of the required value, within such boroughs, could confer a vote at the county election. (After 1832, only non-resident owners of forty shilling freeholds situate ...
