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\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"William Shakespeare","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":67584612303008,"sku":"9780486426884","price":9.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8637\/5072\/files\/BNCImageAPI_a47783ce-e125-4f5f-995d-28e9a42f5289.jpg?v=1790539423","url":"https:\/\/rivendell-books.com\/products\/9780486426884","provider":"Rivendell Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
