"In the last of his tragedies, Shakespeare gives Coriolanus as much human warmth as he can, shows clearly his virtues and defects, and accounts for his downfall wholly in terms of his own character. By focusing on human character rather than on political agreement, Shakespeare reveals a man who is essentially unattractive--one who can be admired for his strength, his openess, even the firmness of his political idealism--but one whom it is impossible to pity or love."@en
