Introduction
William Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford, England, and died in 1616. Therefore, he lived the majority of his life in the Elizabethan era of British history (1558-1603). After Elizabeth I died, James I became king, thus beginning the Jacobean era.
Antony and Cleopatra is a dramatic tragedy by William Shakespeare. Written in 1606/1607, it is one of the author’s later works. Shakespeare’s source material for this play was The Life of Marcus Antonius
in Plutarch’s non-fiction work, The Lives of the Noble Grecians and Romans. Plutarch was a first-century Greek biographer. Shakespeare’s play is a dramatic adaptation of a period in the relationship of two real historical figures: Cleopatra and Mark Antony. Cleopatra lived from 69-30 B.C., and was queen of Egypt from 51-30 B.C. Mark Antony (Marcus Antonius), a Roman general and statesman, lived from 82-30 B.C.
Since they were written in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Shakespeare’s plays have continued to be culturally relevant and widely read. His
