Those "friends" who had benefited from him immediately severed ties with him, and his creditors ruthlessly forced him to repay his debts. Timon became a cynic after discovering the ingratitude and greed of his fellow citizens. He announced another party, inviting past regulars and celebrities. These people mistakenly thought that Timon was pretending to be poor to test their loyalty, so they flocked to him and confessed their feelings to Timon falsely. Timon opened the lid, poured hot water from the dish on the faces and bodies of his guests, and scolded them. From then on, Timon left the city that he could no longer bear, hid in a desolate cave, ate tree roots to satisfy his hunger, and lived like a beast. One day he discovered a pile of gold while digging for tree roots. He distributed the gold to poor people, prostitutes, and thieves who were passing by.

"The Winter's Tale" is a work by the English playwright William Shakespeare. It was first published in the First Folio in 1623.

Because its first three acts are full of intense psychological description, while the last two acts are comedy and have a happy ending, some critics, including W. W. Lawrence, consider it one of Shakespeare's "problem plays."

One of Shakespeare's four great tragedies. Othello is a general employed by the city-state of Venice. He is of African Moorish origin and has a black complexion. Desdemona is the daughter of a Venetian noble, smart, beautiful and passionate. In order to sympathize with Othello's heroic experience and love his cheerful character, she married him without telling her father. Ago is Othello's old subordinate. This man has a loyal and honest appearance, but in his heart he is completely different. He hates Othello for not promoting him to be the chief chamberlain, he hates a black man for marrying a white woman, and he suspects Othello and his wife are having an affair, but the bigger reason is that he thinks from the bottom of his heart that only destroying the happiness of Othello and Desdemona is his greatest satisfaction. He used Roderigo and Emilia as his tools to fabricate false evidence of Desdemona's infidelity, making Othello jealous out of thin air. Jealousy breeds suspicion, forcing Othello to kill Desdemona for "just" reasons. Of course, the truth is revealed in the end, but the mistake has been made, and Othello has the only way to commit suicide. Argo's tricks and Othello's psychological and emotional changes, as well as other people's reactions, are the highest artistic achievements of the characters depicted by Shakespeare.
