Three Roman Plays: Julius Caesar/Antony and Cleopatra/Coriolanus

0/5 ( ratings)

While Julius Caesar and Coriolanus are concentrated on the city of Rome, the epic love affair of Antony and Cleopatra extends across the Empire. Each of these plays is profoundly concerned with political action, with the relation between the political and the personal. Shakespeare, like Plutarch, closely scrutinizes his heroes and compels us to question what sort of men they are.

In this collection each play is accompanied by notes and an introduction, making this edition of particular value to students and theater-goers.

Language: English

Pages: 672
