Antonius ja Cleopatra by William Shakespeare
"Antonius ja Cleopatra" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy first performed around 1607. The play follows the passionate relationship between Roman triumvir Mark Antony and Egypt's Queen Cleopatra, set against the backdrop of political power struggles in the Roman Republic. As Antony neglects his duties for love, tensions rise with fellow triumvir Octavius Caesar, leading toward the fateful War of Actium. The work shifts between sensual Alexandria and austere Rome, featuring one
of Shakespeare's most complex female characters in the infinitely varied Cleopatra. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
