Description

Shakespeare's Timon of Athens details the life of an Athenian citizen known for his generosity. What would otherwise be a virtuous trait leads to his demise, as his wealth attracts corrupt hangers-on eager for more of Timon's charity. One exception is the cynical philosopher Apemantus, who berates Timon's false friends for their covetous and shallow natures.
