- W4308612114 abstract "Shakespeare’s 1608 Coriolanus is a puzzling play with a varied critical reception and performance history. Judgments of its quality range from those ranking it among Shakespeare’s greatest plays to those seeing it as an artistic and philosophical failure; its politics have been seen as right-wing and pro-aristocratic or as left-wing and pro-plebeian. Some of the confusion, I argue, derives from its generic ambiguity. It is a formal tragedy, but one with a satirical strategy aimed at exposing the hollowness and emptiness of its supposed tragic hero, the Roman warrior Coriolanus. As a satirical critique or parody of tragedy, it prepares the way for the tragicomic late plays follow it by drawing attention to the tragic form itself. The play parodies and satirizes its own hero while it also explores social inequality and those tragic subjects, the destructive ethos of war and of autotelic political power. Its empty, megalomaniac central character Coriolanus presages in our day another empty striver after power-for-power’s sake, ex-US President Donald Trump, who also shares Coriolanus’ narcissistic personality disorder and sociopathic view of political morality." @default.
