Inhaltsangabe

Timon of Athens (The Life of Tymon of Athens) is a play by William Shakespeare, published in the First Folio (1623) and probably written in collaboration with another author, most likely Thomas Middleton, in about 1605–1606. It is about the fortunes of an Athenian named Timon (and probably influenced by the philosopher of the same name). The central character is a well beloved citizen of Athens who through tremendous generosity spends his entire fortunes on corrupt hangers-on only interested in getting the next payout.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was an English playwright and poet whose works form a central part of the English literary canon. His plays, written primarily between the late 1580s and early seventeenth century, encompass tragedy, comedy, and history, and have been performed continuously for more than four centuries.The Henry VI plays are among his earliest works and form part of a sequence of English history dramas that trace the political struggles of the late medieval period. King Henry VI, Part III presents the concluding phase of this sequence, leading directly into the events dramatized in Richard III.
