You have placed your question under the William Shakespeare category but the fact is that Shakespeare did not write anything called "The Tragedy of King Arthur". There is a character by the name of Arthur in his play King John, but he does not become king. If you are referring to the story of King Arthur of Round Table fame, a number of different authors have written about that story (Thomas Malory, Alfred Lord Tennyson and T.H. White, for example) and you should indicate whose version you are asking about.
