Cymbeline by William Shakespeare
"Cymbeline" by William Shakespeare is a play written around 1611. Set in Ancient Britain, it follows Princess Imogen, who secretly marries Posthumus Leonatus against her father King Cymbeline's wishes. When Posthumus is banished, a cunning Italian lord wagers he can seduce the faithful Imogen. Through deception, disguise, and mistaken identity, the play weaves together themes of innocence and jealousy with kidnapped princes, a scheming queen, political intrigue with Rome, and a series
of tragic misunderstandings that threaten to destroy everyone involved. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
