Classics Revitalized

There is no mistaking the genius of the classic writers. Unfortunately, it#xE2;#xAC;"s hard for us to fully appreciate their literature because the language they used was so much different than our own is. CLASSICS REVITALIZED seeks to reintroduce today#xE2;#xAC;"s audience to these timeless classics by paraphrasing these original works of literature into modern language. The meaning of the words is the same #xE2;#xAC;#x1C; they#xE2;#xAC;"re just easier to understand!Who will rule the Empire?Antony and Cleopatra is William Shakespeare#xE2;#xAC;"s play of historical fiction following the lives of Mark Antony and Octavius Caesar, two of the three co-rulers of Rome after the assassination of Julius Caesar, and Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt. It is an intriguing story of war, betrayal, romance, and death.In this new paraphrased version of Antony and Cleopatra, author Stephen R. Wilson has preserved William Shakespeare#xE2;#xAC;"s play format, but has not attempted to preserve the poetical structure in which the lines were originally written. The purpose of this is simply to allow you to read and understand the story as easily as possible.
