A Day of Small Things | Too noble for the world? // Coriolanus by Shakespeare // Character Study // Review @adayofsmallthings | Uploaded September 2022 | Updated October 2024, 5 minutes ago.
Coriolanus is one of Shakespeare's later tragedies. A complicated man with seemingly opposite characteristics, Coriolanus is a mystery. He divides opinions: a hero, a tyrant or an overgrown child - it all depends on which angle you stand and look!
Many people don't like Coriolanus, but I do, and I think I understand why he does certain things and reacts in certain ways. Here's a review of this character. Let me know what you think of him.

Another Shakespeare character I analysed this month was Helen from All's Well That Ends Well. Watch here:

Again, I'd also like to tag Ben from @BenjaminMcEvoy who first inspired me to try Shakespeare. Would love to hear your opinion :)
