[PU: Berkeley, Los Angeles, London: University of California Press], XII, 238 p.: Ill. Originalhardcover. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Einband berieben, Review Copy Stempel auf Fußschnitt, Bleistiftanmerkung auf Vorsatz, innen sehr gut und sauber / binding rubbed, review copy stamp on bottom edge, pencil annotation on endpaper, inside very good and clean. - 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 us 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, the essays illuminate Cleopatra’s remarkable legacy and illustrate how it has been used and reused through the centuries. / CONTENTS Illustrations Preface Cleopatra in Egypt, Europe, and New York: An Introduction Margaret M.
