"Troilus and Cressida, a powerful play with well structured characters, shows the dark side of Shakespeare's nature. Her love is mocked and heroism made absurd. Instead of whispering sweet nothings to each other, the lovers exchange bawdy jests, and when Cressida deserts her once-adored Troilus, she scarcely gives him a seconf thought. Meanwhile, on the battle field, the death of the hero Hector at the hand of Achilles is dealt with quickly and unceremoniously."@en
