The Role of Cleopatra 's Children in Defining Her Personality Abstract Cleopatra did not have several roles. She is a queen, goddess, lover, prostitute, wife, witch. But her role as a mother best defines how she is recognized and the other role she will play in a particular literary work. The children of Cleopatra, or their absence, play a decisive role in characterizing Cleopatra. When Cleopatra had no children, she was like a child, ignoring everything else, even though she was injured and selfish or very deeply in love.
Cleopatra is Queen, Pharaoh of Egypt. Shakespeare is full of richness and diversity of Cleopatra. The range of emotions and controls required to represent Cleopatra is quite large, and her role is really the core and focus of Anthony and Cleopatra. Cleopatra's suicide is a successful suicide taken over by her, and she did not want to be conquered. Anthony and Cleopatra are the most suicidal games (a total of five), perhaps because this play involves the exchange of power in the traditional areas of Rome. Passion and excess are fear of lack of shame and liberty
Anthony and Cleopatra are the climax of romance, comedy and tragedy. Queen of Egyptian Cleopatra manipulates relations, government decisions and death through her fascinating power. Shakespeare chased history and intertwined the definition of the role between Cleopatra 's self - defined leader and a stereotype of woman. "Cleopatra is not merely a witch or a queen but is deadly or fertile" (Baker 106), and the combination of her femininity features dominate a woman under the guidance of a traditional Renaissance woman I will complete it. Historically, with the death of Cleopatra, Egypt's rule has ended, but Shakespeare did not end his game as the Romans dominated Egypt, but instead focused on Cleopatra's death and funeral It was. She no longer owns Anthony or Egypt, but she has made tremendous progress in changing the way people imagine female leaders who dominate the patriarchal society.
