Shakespeare's Coriolanus

After our reading of Plutarch's Coriolanus, we read Shakespeare's dramatization of the tale in his Coriolanus. Aside from his own native England, Shakespeare spends more time writing about Ancient Rome than anywhere else (setting his Coriolanus, Julius Caesar, Antony and Cleopatra and Titus Andronicus in Ancient Rome. Cymbeline is set in primitive Britain just before the Roman conquest of ancient Britain.)
