A stimulating new reading of Shakespeare's last tragedy which situates it within its own historical period and presents a lucid reappraisal of its representation of class conflict. In adapting Plutarch for the stage Shakespeare smoothed out the the radical political edges of his source transforming its history of ruling class oppression into a tragedy of the internal contradictions of aristocratic honour. It also evaluates the role of Volumnia as the embodiment of the Roman ideal of aristocratic motherhood and examines the way this most political of Shakespeare's plays is regularly revived and appropriated in times of political crisis.
