Timon of Athens

His descent from lavish patron to bitter recluse feels personal but also symbolic. Did anyone else see this as a commentary on society's values?

The speeches become more bitter and disillusioned — I wonder if the language itself reflects his internal transformation or if it’s a commentary on human nature.

The sense of hopelessness stuck with me. I’m curious whether Shakespeare intended this as a cautionary tale or a reflection of timeless societal flaws.
