Abstract
Timon of Athens is a tragedy about wealth, friendship, and disillusionment. Timon, a generous nobleman, is abandoned by those he once supported when his fortune disappears. Bitter and isolated, he retreats from society and condemns human greed and hypocrisy. The play presents a bleak view of loyalty and the corrupting influence of wealth.
