Résumé
Cleopatra VII Philopator has been remembered for centuries as a seductress, a tragic lover, and the queen who defied Rome. But behind the legends lies a far richer and more complex story: that of the last Pharaoh of Egypt, heir to three hundred years of Ptolemaic rule, and the final voice of an age when Greek ambition and Egyptian tradition met in a fragile balance. This book brings Cleopatra to life not simply as the lover of Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, but as a ruler of extraordinary intelligence, charisma, and political genius.
Born into a dynasty scarred by civil wars and corruption, she inherited a kingdom weakened by division and overshadowed by Rome. Yet through her mastery of language, religion, and diplomacy, she turned Egypt into a central actor on the Mediterranean stage. Fluent in both Greek and Egyptian, she embodied dual identities: Isis incarnate to her people, and a cultivated Hellenistic monarch to foreign courts.
She ruled not just with beauty, but with brilliance-using the wealth of the Nile, the prestige of Alexandria, and her own unmatched presence to delay the inevitable conquest of her realm. From the glittering streets of Alexandria to the temples of Isis, from the intrigues of the Ptolemaic court to the battlefields where Rome's destiny was decided, this book traces Cleopatra's world in vivid detail.
It reveals the cultural fusion, political fault lines, and personal resilience that shaped her reign, and explores why her story has captivated imaginations for two millennia. Cleopatra, Last Queen of Egypt is not merely the tale of a queen, but the closing chapter of Egypt's ancient independence-the moment when one woman, standing at the crossroads of East and West, dared to defy an empire.
