The biography of a queen has not been subjected to distortion, manipulation, and contempt as the biography of Queen Cleopatra was. The common stereotype about her is the image of a playful, promiscuous woman, who becomes as if she were a singer and not a queen. This image has settled in people''s minds until people begin to deal with it as if it were a reality established by cinema and the media. If Cleopatra is mentioned The image of the snake that stung her with the sting of death jumps to mind, and the image of the beloved Antonio, and the rival Octavius. What is the validity of this image? This book aims to answer this question.It contains between its pages a number of different and disparate visions about Cleopatra, from writers from the East and West, and from modern and ancient writers, and this diversity is intentional, as the difference in visions shows how controversial Cleopatra was, and puts before the reader the different perceptions and narratives about her, so that he can work his mind, read and compare, and thus arrive at a conclusion. To the truth that he discovers for himself as a result of the juxtaposition of visions.
