Cultural depictions of William IV of the United Kingdom : ウィキペディア英語版 | Cultural depictions of William IV of the United Kingdom William IV of the United Kingdom has been featured a few times on screen and in some literary works. ==Literature== In Patrick O'Brian's final novel of the Aubrey-Maturin series, Captain Jack Aubrey is obliged to accept as midshipman a bastard son of the Duke of Clarence, as a "first voyager". The novel paints a colourful picture of the Duke and acknowledges his reputation as a competent seaman and commander. However, in other novels in the series, the Duke is portrayed in a far less flattering light; indeed, in the penultimate novel of the series, one of the protagonists - Stephen Maturin - characterizes him as "...a bounding, confident, foul-mouthed scrub". Bernard Bastable's "Mozart Mysteries" - ''Dead, Mr. Mozart'' and ''Too Many Notes, Mr. Mozart'' - involve an alternate version of Wolfgang Mozart who survives in the 1820s and has settled in England, where odd circumstances draw him into Hanoverian intrigue and cover-ups. William IV is a major character in the second book, where he effectively makes Mozart his personal spy against rival factions within the royal family.
