Troilus and Cressida

Shakespeare's History of Troilus and Cressida is a play written by William Shakespeare in the late 16th century. The play is set during the Trojan War and follows the tragic love story of Troilus, a Trojan prince, and Cressida, a Trojan woman who is given to the Greeks as part of a prisoner exchange. The play explores themes of love, betrayal, and the corrupt nature of politics and war. It is considered one of Shakespeare's more complex works, as it blends elements of both tragedy and comedy.
