Despite his battlefield confidence and accomplishments, Coriolanus proves psychologically ill-suited as a candidate for the office of consul and makes an easy scapegoat for the restless citizenry and his political opponents. \u003cbr\u003eThe last of Shakespeare's tragedies, \u003ci\u003eCoriolanus\u003c\/i\u003e was written in approximately 1608 and derived from Plutarch's \u003ci\u003eLives of the Noble Grecians and Romans\u003c\/i\u003e. A timeless tale of pride, revenge, and political chicanery, it remains ever-relevant for modern readers and audiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"He was not of an age, but for all time,\" declared Ben Jonson of his contemporary William Shakespeare (1564-1616). Jonson's praise is especially prescient, since at the turn of the 17th century Shakespeare was but one of many popular London playwrights and none of his dramas were printed in his lifetime. The reason so many of his works survive is because two of his actor friends, with the assistance of Jonson, assembled and published the First Folio edition of 1623.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.36 x 8.18 x 5.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 23, 2003\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54054622855475,"sku":"9780486426884","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/3NYsSF_5TC9780486426884.webp?v=1789030298","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/coriolanus-paperback-10","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
