A Cymbeline Shakespeare keveset játszott színmuve, mely a Téli rege elott egy évvel keletkezett. Abszurd románc a nagypolitika hátországából: döntésképtelen király, mindenre elszánt gonosz királyné, pszichopata mostohafiú, elrabolt királyfi, számuzött foúr, szétválasztott szerelmespár... Méreg, tetszhalál, orület, gyilkosság, árulás, színlelés és sírig hu szerelem, melyet bemocskol egy "kis Jago" (Iachimo). Aztán kitör a háború és mindent elborít a káosz. Látlelet egy támpontok nélküli világról, rémálommá váló édes ifjúságról és keseru öregségrol. Mintha Shakespeare régebbi darabjaiból válogatta volna a szereploket: csupa ismeros alak, csupa ismeros szituáció# mintha összefoglalná az életmuvét.

A közfelfogás szerint a sikeres hadvezért a heroikus gog dönti romlásba, emiatt nem való népvezérnek, s amikor a politikai porondon kudarcot vall, ez fordítja szembe hazájával. Shakespeare azonban másként ítél, mert más problémát tárgyal: o a fusztráció tragédiáját dolgozza föl. Coriolanus ?római jelleme? gépiesen funkcionális, mint a pályára állított versenyzoé, aki annyiban önmaga, amennyiben rekorderedménnyel legyozi ellenfelét. Erre az egyetlen feladatra trenírozták, ezt a támadóösztönt trenírozta bele az anyai nevelés. Egyébként infantilisan jófiú, csak akkor érzi jól magát, ha kötelességét teljesíti. S mivel egymásnak ellentmondó parancsot kap, elbizonytalanodik, elvadul, tönkremegy. A cinizmus és fanatizmus zurzavaros katasztrófa-politikájában elégtelen vezérelv a szolgálati becsület: bajnokát a rómaiak kivetik maguk közül, mert nem hajlandó kompromisszumra, a volszkok pedig csapdába csalják és végeznek vele, mert kompromisszumra hajlott. Az etikai abszurdumból dramaturgiailag az következik, hogy a levitézlett harcos megkapja a végtisztességet ? ellenségeitol.

The Taming of the Shrew is a comedy by William Shakespeare. It was one of his earlier plays, believed to have been written between 1590 and 1594. The play begins with a framing device in which a drunkard is deceived into thinking he is a nobleman who then watches the "play" itself, which depicts a nobleman, Petruchio, who marries an outspoken, intelligent, and bad-tempered shrew named Katherina. Petruchio manipulates and "tames" her until she is obedient to his will. The main subplot features the courting of Katherina's more conventional sister Bianca by numerous suitors.
