DESCRIPTION:
Paul Jesson plays Coriolanus, and Marjorie Yates is Volumnia. A Roman history as well as tragedy, Coriolanus is a complex and subtle exploration of the themes of absolution and compromise, both in the political world and in the life of the individual. The patrician Caius Marcius, later called Coriolanus, is Rome's greatest soldier, but his proud refusal to accommodate himself to the demands of the plebeians leads to banishment and death.. Full-Cast Audio Theater Dramatization. Rome is a city divided, nobility and common-people locked in mutual suspicion. Ewan Hooper plays Menenius
He was an active member of a theater company for at least twenty years, during which time he wrote many great plays. Plays were not prized as literature at the time, and Shakespeare was not widely read until the middle of the eighteenth century, when a great upsurge of interest in his works began that continues today.. About the AuthorWilliam Shakespeare (1564-1616), English poet and dramatist of the Elizabethan and early Jacobean period, is the most widely known author in all of English literature and often considered
the actor as misanthope R. G. Banker I love Coriolanus. He's the bad boy of military generals, because he refuses to be anything other than what he is. You won't find a Roman General MacArthur with prettified poetic/political ambitions here--what you get is Coriolanus the warrior--the lion you want leading you into battle.Oh, and it's a rip-roaring metaphor for the actor hewing his way out of the claustrophobic, intimate circle at center stage (his mother's arms) to take a hostile audience by the throat and rattle some artistic sense into it.Arkangel .
