Coriolanus: A Tragedy In Five Acts

By William Shakespeare

"Coriolanus", a powerful tragedy by William Shakespeare, explores themes of political manipulation, pride, and the nature of heroism in ancient Rome. The play follows the rise and fall of Caius Marcius Coriolanus, a brilliant but arrogant Roman general, whose disdain for the common people leads to his banishment and eventual downfall.

Shakespeare's masterful use of language and his insightful portrayal of complex characters make "Coriolanus" a timeless exploration of the corrupting influence of power and the dangers of unchecked ambition. Set against the backdrop of Roman political intrigue, this tragedy offers a compelling study of human nature and the enduring conflict between individual ambition and civic duty. This edition presents the play in five acts, making it ideal for both study and performance.
