No man’s life has been the subject of more speculation than William ’s plebeians riot over a food shortage, angry that the patricians have been hoarding corn. As Shakespeare’s. While Shakespearean scholars have dedicated their lives Menenius, a patrician senator popular among the people, attempts to calm them, Caius Martius, a military to the search for evidence, the truth is that no one really knows what hero, arrives. He scorns the plebeians and tells Menenius that the rioting has won them a concession: the truth is. Scholars agree that a William Shakespeare was baptized tribunes will be elected to represent the interests of the people in the senate. News arrives that Rome is at Stratford-upon-Avon on April 26, 1564. Tradition holds that he was about to be invaded by a neighboring tribe, the Volscians. Eager to fight Aufidius, the Volscians’ general, born three days earlier, on April 23—the same date on which, 52 years Martius volunteers himself. After the patricians leave, the tribunes Sicinius and Brutus discuss their dislike later, he was recorded to have died. On 27, 1582, a marriage of Martius and his contempt for the people. license was granted to 18-year-old William and 26-year-old Anne Hathaway. A daughter, Susanna, was born to the couple six months Volumnia, Martius’ mother, lectures his wife, Virgilia, who is afraid that Martius will die in battle, on the later. We know that twins, Hamnet and Judith, were born soon after and valor to be found in war. As fighting begins in the Volscian city of Corioles, Martius curses his retreating were baptized. What we do not know is how the young Shakespeare troops and forces his way through the city gates, alone. The soldiers believe him dead, but he returns came to travel to and how he first came to the stage. Whatever and rallies the Romans to conquer the city. Covered in blood, Martius finds and defeats Aufidius, leaving the truth may be, it is clear that in the years between 1582 and 1592 him and the Volscians humiliated. After the battle, Cominius honors Martius with the honorific surname someone calling himself William Shakespeare became involved in the London theatre scene and was a “Coriolanus,” in recognition of his role in taking Corioles. principal actor with one of several repertory companies. In Rome, Menenius criticizes Brutus and Sicinius for their hostility to Coriolanus and their political By 1592 Shakespeare had become prominent enough as a playwright to engender professional jealousy. ambitions. When Coriolanus returns from Corioles in triumph, the senate votes to elect him as consul, the A rival playwright, Robert Greene, wrote snidely of an “upstart crow, beautified with our feathers, that with highest office in Rome. He cringes, however, at the required ceremony of wearing the “gown of humility,” his tiger’s heart wrapped in a player’s hide supposes he is as well able to bombast out a blank verse as in which he must show his scars to the plebeians and beg for their votes. When the plebeians arrive to see the best of you, and being an absolute Johannes-factotum is in his own conceit the only Shakescene in a his wounds, Coriolanus is condescending, but they approve his election nonetheless. After he departs, the country.” In the years between 1591 and 1593, the theatres of London were temporarily shut down due tribunes stir up anger in the plebeians at Coriolanus’ mockery. At home, Volumnia tells Coriolanus that he to an outbreak of plague; Shakespeare turned his considerable talents to sonnet writing and acquired a must apologize to the people, and he reluctantly assents. When Coriolanus returns, the plebeians, urged on patron, the young Lord Southampton, to whom two of his poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of by the tribunes, banish him from Rome. Coriolanus leaves, denouncing Rome bitterly. Lucrece, are dedicated. In Antium, the capital of Volscian territory, a disguised Coriolanus interrupts Aufidius’ feast and makes In 1594 Shakespeare was listed as a stockholder in the Lord Chamberlain’s Men; he was a member of him an offer: kill me now, or accept my help in conquering Rome. Aufidius embraces him as an ally. In this company for the rest of his career, which lasted until approximately 1611. When James I came to Rome, the tribunes congratulate themselves on their ousting of Coriolanus, until they hear news of the the throne in 1603, he issued a royal license to Shakespeare and his fellow players, inviting them to call Volscian army approaching, led by Coriolanus. In the field, Aufidius tells a lieutenant that he hates being themselves The King’s Men. The King’s Men leased the Blackfriar’s Theatre in London in 1608. This theatre, overshadowed by Coriolanus, who has won his soldiers’ hearts, and intends to kill him after the war.

Finally, outside the city, Coriolanus’ family arrives. Volumnia pleads with him to spare Rome. Coriolanus agrees to broker a peace between the Volscians In the years since Shakespeare’s death, he had fallen to the depths of obscurity only to be resurrected and the Romans. The Volscian army retreats, and Volumnia enters Rome to the adulation of the people. as the greatest writer of English literature and drama. In the 1800s, his plays were so popular that many In Antium, Aufidius plots to kill Coriolanus. As Coriolanus returns, Aufidius insults him in the public square refused to believe that an actor from Stratford had written them. To this day some believe that Sir Francis and incites his soldiers and the Volscians to kill him. Bacon was the real author of the plays; others argue that Edward DeVere, the Earl of Oxford, was the man. Still others contend that Sir Walter Raleigh or penned the lines attributed to Shakespeare. Whether the plays were written by Shakespeare the man or Shakespeare the myth, it is clear that no other playwright has made such a significant and lasting contribution to the English language.

Early in the action of Coriolanus, Shakespeare surprises us with a scene of familial intimacy. Volumnia, Coriolanus’ mother, discusses her grandson, Young Martius, who plays at being a soldier in emulation of his father. “He had rather see the swords and hear a drum than look upon his schoolmaster,” Volumnia says proudly. “I saw him run after a gilded butterfly,” says Valeria, another Roman matron describing a scene of childlike play that ends unexpectedly: ...and when he caught it, he let it go again, and after it again, and over and over he comes, and up again, catched it again. Or whether his fall enraged him, or how ’twas, he did so set his teeth and tear it. O, I warrant it, how he mammocked it! (act 1, scene 3)

A mammock is a hunk of meat, more figuratively a scrap, shred or fragment. This passage is the first Left: The Monstrous Beast of War, artist unknown, circa 1630. Right: Abraham Bosse, frontispiece of Hobbes’ Leviathan, 1642. time it appears as a verb in the English language, in Shakespeare’s vivid image of dismemberment. In our contemporary era of gun violence, when military weapons and ideologies can intrude into the If Coriolanus portrays the dismemberment of the Roman body politic, Friedrich Schiller’s Wallenstein private sphere of children’s lives with horrific consequences, Shakespeare suddenly looks prescient. depicts a body that is already mutilated, a endlessly divided by total war. There is more at stake than butterflies. The play is set in 1634, the exact midpoint of the Thirty Years’ War. More than a thousand years after In Coriolanus, Shakespeare draws his plot from Plutarch’s Lives, which tells the story of the Charlemagne unified Western Europe under the name of the Holy Roman Empire, it now consists aristocratic Caius Martius Coriolanus, the legendary warrior who helped establish democracy in of more than 400 warring members in an area roughly the size of Texas. What had started as a local Rome by defeating Tarquin the Proud, only to lead an army against the republic himself. In adapting religious conflict between Protestant and Catholic nobles in Bohemia has blown up into a continent- this story, Shakespeare seems to question the underpinnings of democracy, while at the same time wide conflagration. Peasants live in terror as wave after wave of invaders—Saxon, Danish, Swedish— finding fault in our attraction to charismatic military leaders. To this provocative plot, Shakespeare rape and pillage their way across the countryside. Foreign armies, consisting largely of mercenary adds a guiding metaphor very much in Elizabethan vogue: that of the body politic. soldiers, pioneer unprecedented and unimaginable tortures. Entire cities are reduced to ashes. Soldiers eat their own horses during the winter months for sustenance. “The senators of Rome are this good belly,” Coriolanus’ friend Menenius tells a group of rioting citizens in the play’s first scene, which evokes contemporary images of Tea Party and Occupy For the German people, who bore the brunt of the suffering, the war would forever be regarded protests, “And you the mutinous members.” According to Menenius, the leaner “members” of the as a national trauma. In the early 20th century, both political sides sought to purge the infection commonwealth need to feed the “belly” in order for it to remain healthy. In other words, Menenius through different means. would set his apocalyptic anti-war play, Mother Courage and is a proponent of trickle-down economics. Her Children, during the Thirty Years’ War, while Adolf Hitler would advocate an identity politics of aggressive militarism in order to resurrect the spirit of the “First Reich.” Throughout the play, Shakespeare draws our attention to the image of the body politic, and, like Young Martius’ butterfly, to the dismemberment of that body. Instability, Shakespeare seems to be Like Shakespeare, Schiller seems to challenge such ideological polarities with his provocative choice saying, is human nature, and thus it is also the nature of the bodies we create, whether physical of plot: the last days of Wallenstein. When Albrecht Wallenstein, the key figure in the Thirty Years’ or political. Late in the play, Coriolanus’ rival, the Volscian general Aufidius, comments on the War, was killed by in Eger Castle, he was possibly attempting to negotiate a peace with impermanence of human creations: the enemy Swedes. The war had raged for 15 years before he was killed; it would rage for 15 years So our virtues more after he was killed. The Wallensteinfrage (“Wallenstein Question”) has never been solved, up Lie in th’interpretation of the time... to the present day. Was he attempting to unify Europe in peace, or was he angling for something One fire drives out one fire, one nail one nail; more personal? Czechs claim him as a national hero, a would-be King of Bohemia lost to history. Rights by rights falter, strengths by strengths do fail. (act 4, scene 7) Austrians consider him a traitor to Vienna and the Emperor, a Coriolanus who had forsaken his Rome. Most other Germans simply consider him the man who could have stopped the bloodshed. It’s hard to think of a more pessimistic commentary on human history. Might makes right, therefore right is relative. There is no such thing as morality, only competing political ideologies, as one Schiller was in fact, like Shakespeare, writing about a central dilemma of his times. From the 1770s to interpretation drives out another. In the 20th century, Coriolanus was adopted for propagandistic the 1790s, he witnessed the first democratic revolutions since the time of the Romans. He also saw uses by extremist parties on both left and right. It was Adolf Hitler’s favorite Shakespeare play, and it the equally destabilizing and terrifying rise of Napoleon. In an age of democratic revolutions, Schiller was also Bertolt Brecht’s. understood, the people’s demand for freedom is absolute. However, he also understood that in an age of autocratic counterinsurgencies, the state demands a similarly paramount loyalty. Wallenstein is In our own fractured era of competing political ideologies, what is the interpretation of our time? caught inextricably between his people’s demand for freedom, which recognizes no political boundaries, Perhaps one kind of answer lies in what happens to Coriolanus, one of Shakespeare’s most and his loyalty to the state and the Emperor, who made him the great man he is. In Coriolanus and ambiguous tragic heroes. Like Martius’ butterfly, and like the state of Rome at the end of the play, Wallenstein, Schiller and Shakespeare both portray this tragic paradox, central to both plays: man is he is mammocked. absolutely free only in the life to come. For so long as he lives, his divided loyalties make him simply another member of the body politic.

Sometimes characterized as Germany’s answer to Shakespeare, It is 1634. The Thirty Years’ War has been raging across Europe for 15 years. Sometimes called a religious war, Friedrich Schiller (November 10, 1759–May 9, 1805) is one of the the conflict is actually over political power itself, as Protestant and Catholic factions have fought on both sides. greatest German poets and playwrights, as well as one of the first Duke Wallenstein of Bohemia, the supreme commander of the Holy Roman Emperor’s army, has assembled modern European intellectuals. His alliance, at the turn of the 19th the largest land force that Europe has ever seen. Composed of a polyglot stew of mercenaries, they are loyal century, with his close friend Johann Wolfgang von Goethe resulted to Wallenstein, whom they believe has the power to end the war and bring peace. However, Wallenstein has in a body of writings that touch on all aspects of human knowledge, been negotiating secretly with the enemy Swedes, and he envisions a peace in which he holds great power. including poetry and philosophy, history and natural science, psychology and spirituality. He is perhaps most famous as the author of the words As the action begins, Octavio Palladini, Wallenstein’s oldest friend and one of his generals, arrives in in the Ode to Joy, which appears in the last movement of Beethoven’s Wallenstein’s camp in Pilsen with Questenberg, a diplomat sent by the Emperor from Vienna. They discover, Ninth Symphony. to their alarm, that Wallenstein has gathered together all of his chief generals, who espouse sentiments that come close to treason. In a war council, Questenberg presents Wallenstein with the Emperor’s command: he Born in the petty principality of Württemberg, a duchy of the Holy Roman is to divert eight regiments to Milan, to escort the Spanish Habsburg Prince. Instead of agreeing to the order, Empire, Schiller spent a traumatic adolescence in the Karlsschule, the Wallenstein threatens to resign his commission, sending the meeting into chaos. Afterward, in conference strict military academy overseen personally by the repressive Duke Karl with his brother-in-law Count Czerny and his Field-Marshall Kolibas, Wallenstein demands that his generals Eugen. His first play,The Robbers (1782), written while he was still a sign an oath of loyalty to him, unconditional, with no mention of the Emperor. Czerny and Kolibas agree to student, is marked by revolutionary calls for freedom and emphatic assertions of the individual’s will to action. trick the generals that night at a banquet. Schiller was imprisoned for two weeks and forbidden from writing more plays, but he fled from the Duke’s prison in and began the career of a writer. After success in Mannheim with Cabal and Love (1784), At the banquet, Max Palladini, Octavio’s son, meets secretly with Wallenstein’s daughter Thekla. They are in Schiller moved to Leipzig. Here he reached a crisis point with Don Carlos (1787), a blank verse play that love, but Thekla understands that their marriage will come at the cost of Max betraying the Emperor. That combined his youthful idealism with increasingly ambitious historical and political content. night at the banquet, Max refuses to sign the oath of loyalty prepared by Czerny and Kolibas, raising the suspicions of the drunken generals. The next day, Wallenstein meets with Lundquist, a Swedish Captain, but Feeling that he was unable to continue writing drama after Don Carlos, Schiller turned to aesthetic, historical he hesitates, uncertain whether to commit himself to the other side. and philosophical studies. In 1788, he was appointed professor at the University of Jena, and his History of the Thirty Years’ War (1791–1793) was read widely. Meeting Goethe in 1794, Schiller proceeded to write his In his officer’s quarters, Octavio reveals Wallenstein’s death warrant, signed by the Emperor, to Max, who groundbreaking theoretical essays, the most famous of which include The Theater Considered as a Moral cannot believe his father’s diplomatic deceit. Octavio then shows the warrant to two of Wallenstein’s generals, Institution (1794), Letters on the Aesthetic Education of Man (1795) and On Naïve and Sentimental Poetry Harvaty and Bailey. Harvaty leaves with Octavio, but Bailey stays behind, posing as one of Wallenstein’s (1796). In these writings, Schiller articulated an aesthetic program in which art, particularly dramatic art, was loyalists. When the warrant becomes public knowledge, Wallenstein’s soldiers revolt. After trying to talk charged with the moral edification of the individual in order to bring about social change. to a regiment of Grenadiers, Wallenstein gives the order to open fire on his own troops. Max breaks with Wallenstein, horrified. Inspired by these writings, Schiller began to be aware of an urge to return to playwriting. Moving to Weimar, Germany’s literary capital, Schiller co-founded the Weimar with Goethe, beginning a brief-lived Forced to flee to the mountain stronghold of Eger, Wallenstein arrives with his smaller band of followers, renaissance of German theatre practice and theory. After christening the stage with Wallenstein (1799), an where he is greeted by Gordon, the fortress commander. News arrives of Max’s death, trampled by his own epic 10-act tragedy based on his historical writings, Schiller would write only four more plays—Maria Stuart horses in a meaningless battle against the Swedes. Thekla leaves to find Max’s gravesite. Meanwhile, Bailey (1800), The Maid of Orleans (1801), The Bride of Messina (1803) and Wilhelm Tell (1804)—each of them enlists Devereux and MacDonald, two Scottish captains in Wallenstein’s troop, to kill him as he prepares for pairing a momentous historical subject with an innovative dramatic form. He died in 1805, at the age of 46, bed. Wallenstein and his generals are murdered. Octavio, arriving too late to spare Wallenstein’s life, is named due to complications from tuberculosis. Schiller’s theoretical writings have proven enormously influential Prince and commander of the armies. in modern culture, and his mature plays—idealistic in theme, realistic in treatment—embody his aesthetic program. As Goethe said: “The idea of freedom assumed a different form as Schiller advanced in his own development and became a different man. In his youth it was physical freedom that preoccupied him and found its way into his works; in later life it was spiritual freedom.”
