This Roman play is one of Shakespeare's last tragedies, best
known for its political and military themes. Its hero, Coriolanus,
is a proud General who does not hesitate to show his arrogant and
outspoken contempt of the Roman rabble. The Tribunes banish him and
he raises an army to take his revenge on Rome. He finally concedes
to the pleas of his mother to spare the city and leaves only to be
publicly killed by his former allies.
Peter Holland is a former Director of the Shakespeare Institute
in Stratford-upon-Avon and President of the Shakespeare Association
of America. He is a pre-eminent international scholar. His
comprehensive introduction and commentary notes open up the
language, themes and ideas in this complex yet richly rewarding
play for the student and teacher.
