    Cymbeline, also known as Cymbeline, King of Britain or The Tragedy of Cymbeline, is a play by William Shakespeare, set in Ancient Britain and based on legends that formed part of the Matter of Britain concerning the early Celtic British King Cunobeline. Although listed as a tragedy in the First Folio, modern critics often classify Cymbeline as a romance. Like Othello and The Winter's Tale, it deals with the themes of innocence and jealousy. While the precise date of composition remains unknown, the play was certainly produced as early as 1611

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Sept. 5, 2016)
    Imogen, the daughter of the British king Cymbeline, goes against her father's wishes and marries a lowborn gentleman, Posthumus, instead of his oafish stepson, Cloten. Cloten is the son of Cymbeline's new Queen, a villainous woman who has made the king her puppet. Cymbeline sends Posthumus into exile in Italy, where he encounters a smooth-tongued Italian named Iachimo. Iachimo argues that all women are naturally unchaste, and he makes a wager with Posthumus that he will be able to seduce Imogen. He goes to the British court and, failing in his initial attempt to convince the princess to sleep with him, resorts to trickery: He hides in a large chest and has it sent to her room; that night he slips out, observes her sleeping, and steals a bracelet that Posthumus once gave to her.

    Critics and fans alike call Shakespeare's romance Cymbeline one of his most underrated plays. Set in ancient England, the play follows the aftermath of the illicit marriage of Imogen, a princess who has risked everything by wedding a suitor some deem unsuitable without seeking her father's permission. When King Cymbeline discovers her treachery, all hell breaks loose.

    Excerpt from CymbelineAll this may be true, but at present it cannot be regarded as more than a very interesting speculation. It is not proved, as I have said, that Cymbeline did not chronologically pre cede P/zilaster. And to me, I repeat, it seems that the type of the Shakespearian dramatic romance had been at least outlined or sketched in the Marina romance of Pericles.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
