Part of the authoritative and acclaimed Penguin Shakespeare series, now rejacketed in the celebrated Penguin Classics livery

A battle-hardened soldier, Antony is one of the three leaders of the Roman world. But he is also a man in the grip of an all-consuming passion for the exotic and tempestuous queen of Egypt. And when their life of pleasure together is threatened by the encroaching politics of Rome, the conflict between love and duty has devastating consequences.

    William Shakespeare was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's preeminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". His surviving works, including some collaborations, consist of 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.

    Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire and was baptised on 26 April 1564. Thought to have been educated at the local grammar school, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he went on to have three children, at the age of eighteen, before moving to London to work in the theatre. Two erotic poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece were published in 1593 and 1594 and records of his plays begin to appear in 1594 for Richard III and the three parts of Henry VI. Shakespeare's tragic period lasted from around 1600 to 1608, during which period he wrote plays including Hamlet and Othello. The first editions of the sonnets were published in 1609 but evidence suggests that Shakespeare had been writing them for years for a private readership.

    Shakespeare spent the last five years of his life in Stratford, by now a wealthy man. He died on 23 April 1616 and was buried in Holy Trinity Church in Stratford. The first collected edition of his works was published in 1623.

2.0 out of 5 stars This e-book edition is terrible
Reviewed in Germany on 12 February 2019
Verified Purchase
This edition of Antony and Cleopatra is definitely not recommended. First, the introductory essays are poorly written and provide little of value for general readers. Second, the e-book version has a terrible way of handling footnotes. Instead of marking the play's text to show where there are footnotes, the reader needs to randomly touch the play's text to see whether or not there is a footnote linked to it. Of course, if there is not footnote, touching the text results in turning the page. This annoying aspect is a reason to avoid this as an e-book.

4.0 out of 5 stars The condition of the book, it being Penguin, was great. The review and stars are about the play.
Reviewed in India on 21 November 2020

This is not a romance! but you cannot deny Cleopatra her feelings or the feelings that Shakespeare has lent her. As for Antony, Shakespeare will have us know; "......is Antony yet". As spontaneous in death as in live and Shakespeare has, even in his failure managed to glorify Antony's freedom and spontaneity over the calculated victories of Caesar.
