Set in the aftermath of the Tarquin kings' expulsion, the narrative explores the conflict between the commoners and the lords hoarding grain. General Marcius, dismissive of the commoners' contributions, faces a revolt that leads to his rise as Coriolanus. Upon returning home, his ambitious mother urges him to pursue a consul position, igniting tensions with former allies who plot against him. The play delves into themes of power, loyalty, and the struggles between social classes in early Roman society.
