Free Kindle Coriolanus (Arkangel Shakespeare - Fully Dramatized) (Arkangel Complete Shakespeare) ebooks Download
[Full-Cast Audio Theater Dramatization. Paul Jesson plays Coriolanus, and Marjorie Yates is Volumnia. Ewan Hooper plays Menenius.] 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. Rome is a city divided, nobility and common-people locked in mutual suspicion. 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.

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 did a great job, as usual, with this performance.
Buyer beware. This recording is NOT unabridged. The first disc cuts off in mid-sentence, and the second disc ends abruptly. The whole play of Coriolanus NOT on this recording.
