EDITORS COMMENTS
Coriolanus: A Tale of Loyalty and Disloyalty in Ancient Rome This evocative image captures a poignant moment in the tumultuous story of Gaius Marcius Coriolanus, a legendary Roman military hero and the subject of one of William Shakespeare's most compelling tragedies. Here, Coriolanus (pictured left), having turned against his own city to lead the Volscian army in an attack on Rome, is confronted by his mother, Veturia (pictured right), who implores him to spare Rome and its people. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of the ancient Roman world, a time of conflict and political upheaval. Coriolanus, a man of unwavering loyalty to his military comrades and his own pride, had earned the enmity of the Roman plebeians through his arrogance and disdain for the common people. Driven out of Rome, he found refuge among the Volscians, who welcomed his military prowess and offered him command of their army. But as Coriolanus leads his new army against his former city, the weight of his actions begins to take its toll. Veturia, a symbol of maternal love and loyalty, appeals to her son's sense of duty and compassion, reminding him of his Roman roots and the sacrifices made by his family for the city. The image captures the raw emotion of this moment, with Veturia's pleading gaze and outstretched arms contrasting sharply with Coriolanus's stoic, resolute expression. The juxtaposition of the military might of the Volscian army and the simple, heartfelt appeal of a mother to her son highlights the complexities of loyalty and disloyalty, and the consequences they can have on individuals and on the course of history. This powerful image, taken from the annals of ancient Roman history, serves as a reminder of the enduring themes of family, loyalty, and the human capacity for change and redemption.
