Cymbeline

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was an English poet, playwright, and actor, considered by many as the greatest English writer. Hundreds of specialists were able to translate his works into every major language, and most of the plays are performed more often than those of any other author. 'Cymbeline' is a romantic play set in Ancient Britain and based on the legends of the early Celtic British King Cunobeline. It tells the story of the commoner Posthumus who falls in love with the princess Imogen. She marries him, but the King Cymbeline, her father, finds about it and exiles Posthumus.
