The Tragedy of Coriolanus
by William Shakespeare

“You should account me the more virtuous that I have not been common in my love.”

A young republic is beset by famine, and when the plebeians demand fair prices for imported grain, a hot-headed general argues that their recently won rights should be stripped in exchange. In this world, women may wage war (often using men as proxies) or hold political office, and same sex relations barely register in the minds of a society which prizes the ability to subjugate and control, to conquer, above all. Here, now, is Rome.
