Synopsis
TIMON OF ATHENS , one of Shakespeare's least performed plays, explores issues of loyalty and friendship, and the value of wealth. In ancient Athens, a lord and wealthy landowner, Timon, holds an opulent feast at which he lavishes his friends with gifts, food, and money, despite the misgiving of his faithful steward, Flavius, and the cynical warnings of the philosopher Apemantus. After discovering that he has lost all his land and money through wastefulness, Timon sends out his servants to ask his friends for assistance, but his friends refuse. Seeking revenge, Timon holds another banquet, but this time he serves rocks, and throws water on his guests. After fleeing into the wilderness, Timon discovers a hidden trove of gold. He gives some to a rebel and murderer, Alcibiades, to assist him in his planned attack on Athens. Finally, Flavius tracks down his master in the forest, and Timon calls him his only true friend. When the senators of Athens plea with Timon to prevent Alcibiades from attacking the city, he spurns them and dies. In its tale of a proud and naive man brought low by fate and the treachery of those he believed to be his closest allies, some critics have seen TIMON OF ATHENS as an early version of Shakespeare's masterly KING LEAR.
