Viewed as both goddess and monster even in her own lifetime, she has become through the ages saint and sinner, heroine and victim, femme fatale and star-crossed lover, black and white. A protean figure, Cleopatra defies categorization. Cleopatra s life story, gleaned from contemporary sources, is powerfully intriguing: Married four times, she seduced two of the most powerful men in Rome (Julius Caesar and Marc Antony), became the sole ruler of Egypt, gained legendary status for her lavish banquets, and chose to die rather than endure disgrace as the...

Reading Rivers in Roman Literature and Culture
ISBN: 9780739112403 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

This study depends primarily on the...
