One of Shakespeare's late romances - along with Pericles, The Tempest and The Winter's Tale - Cymbeline tells three connected stories: the resistance of a British king to Roman rule; the story of two lovers Imogen and Posthumous driven apart by the lies of the villainous Jachimo; and the tale of two young princes kidnapped from the royal.
The King of Britain, enraged by his daughter's disobedience in marrying against his wishes, banishes his new son-in-law. Having fled to Rome, the exiled husband makes a foolish wager with a villain he encounters there gambling on the fidelity of his abandoned wife. Combining courtly menace and horror, comedy and melodrama, Cymbeline is a moving depiction of two young lovers driven apart by deceit and self-doubt.
