Coriolanus is the fifteenth story in The Shakespeare Notebooks.

Summary

The extant version of Coriolanus is an account of the Roman military hero, Coriolanus, who is raised, unwillingly, to the highest office - then loses his political power and goes into exile in the country of his former releases, the Volsces.

This previously unknown version from the Notebooks is set in another territory entirely, referred to in the text as Tara, a possible allusion to the kingdom of ancient Ireland.
