"After reading, and perhaps re-reading, the contributions to this remarkable set off essays, the reasons contributing to the posthumous super-status of Cleopatra VII become self-evident."-- Bryn Mawr Classical Review (Bmcr), After reading, and perhaps re-reading, the contributions to this remarkable set off essays, the reasons contributing to the posthumous super-status of Cleopatra VII become self-evident.

Synopsis
Cleopatra--a brave, astute, and charming woman who spoke many languages, entertained lavishly, hunted, went into battle, eliminated siblings to consolidate her power, and held off the threat of Imperial Rome to protect her country as long as she could--continues to fascinate centuries after she ruled Egypt. These wide-ranging essays explore such topics as Cleopatra's controversial trip to Rome, her suicide by snake bite, and the afterlife of her love potions. They view Cleopatra from the Egyptian perspective, and examine the reception in Rome of Egyptian culture, especially of its religion and architecture. They discuss films about her, and consider what inspired Egyptomania in early modern art. Together, these essays illuminate Cleopatra's legacy and illustrate how it has been used and reused through the centuries., Cleopatra-a brave, astute, and charming woman who spoke many languages, entertained lavishly, hunted, went into battle, eliminated siblings to consolidate her power, and held off the threat of Imperial Rome to protect her country as long as she could-continues to fascinate centuries after she ruled Egypt.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (5,136)
- t***h (29)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlways good to have a supply of this...
- 2***9 (10)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe last half of the book was quite gripping
- 1***a (403)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseZero stars are most appropriate for this seller. Seems this scammer seller likes to post things they don't actually possess to sell, and claim they don't have something only to immediately repost it at a significant price increase. Their communication is pathetic, when they bother to communicate at all. I've had to get eBay to lock their account in order to get the full refund for a book I was told was shipped, later told wasn't shipped and would I wait for them to look for it. Scammer!
