Description

Coriolanus is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1605 and 1608.

The play is based on the life of the legendary Roman leader Caius Marcius Coriolanus.

Shakespeare worked on it during the same years he wrote Antony and Cleopatra, making them the last two tragedies written by him.

Coriolanus is the name given to a Roman general after his military feats against the Volscians at Corioli.

Following his success he seeks to be consul, but his disdain for the plebeians and the mutual hostility of the tribunes lead to his banishment from Rome.

He presents himself to the Volscians, then leads them against Rome.
