Cleopatra<\/span> <\/span>, 69 B.C.<\/span><\/span>\u201330 B.C.<\/span><\/span>, queen of Egypt, one of the great romantic heroines of all time.
\n
Her name was widely used in the Ptolemaic family; there were many earlier Cleopatras. The daughter of Ptolemy XI, she was married at the age of 17 (as was the family custom) to her younger brother Ptolemy XII<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The force and character of the royal pair was, however, concentrated in the alluring (<\/span>though apparently not beautiful<\/span>) and ambitious queen. She led a revolt against her brother, and, obtaining the aid of <\/span>Julius Caesar<\/span>, she won the kingdom, although it remained a vassal of Rome.<\/span>
\n
Her young brother-husband was accidentally drowned in the Nile. She then married her still younger brother <\/span>Ptolemy XIII<\/a>, but<\/span> she was the mistress of Caesar and followed him to Rome; there she bore a son, Caesarion<\/span> (later <\/span>Ptolemy XIV<\/a>), who was said to be his.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Returning to Egypt after the murder of Caesar and the battle of Philippi<\/a>, she was visited (42 B.C.<\/span>) by Marc Antony<\/a>, who had come to demand an account of her actions. He fell hopelessly in love with her, and Cleopatra, conscious of her royalty and even her claims to divinity as the pharaoh’s daughter, seems to have hoped to use Antony to reestablish the real power of the Egyptian throne. They were married in 36 B.C.<\/span> Most of the Romans feared and hated Cleopatra, and Octavian (later Augustus<\/a>) undertook to destroy the two lovers.
\n
Antony and Cleopatra were defeated off Actium in 31 B.C.<\/span>, and, returning to Alexandria, they tried to defend themselves in Egypt. When they failed, Antony committed suicide by falling on his sword. Cleopatra, faced by the cold and unmoved Octavian, also killed herself. Her schemes failed, but her ambition, capability, and remarkable charm have left a great impression on history.
\n
Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra,<\/i> based on Plutarch, describes the tragic end of the queen’s career, and Dryden’s All for Love: or, The World Well Lost<\/i> is a reworking of Shakespeare. Caesar and Cleopatra,<\/i> the comedy by G. B. Shaw, deals with the early years of her story.<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n
Ik vraag me af of het aan Shakespeare ligt of enkel aan de tragiek van Anthony’s en Cleopatra’s liefde of misschien wel aan Plutarch of een combinatie. Maar de meeste gewone zielen aan wie ik het vroeg, wisten niet dat Julius en Cleopatra iets <\/span>hadden gehad. Ze waren alleen op de hoogte van Anthony.
\n
Wat nog verbazingwekkender is, is dat ik wel wist van Julius en Cleopatra, maar niet van Anthony. Wat is er mis gegaan in mijn opvoeding?
