Beschreibung
Shrouded in myth, the legends of Cleopatra have captivated writers and artists for centuries. Exploring how the Egyptian queen is so often cast as a cruel and distrustful seductress, Francine Prose shows the ways this portrayal has often been driven by orientalism and misogyny and offers a fresh interpretation of Cleopatra's history.
