Mark Antony

Mark Antony stood out to me as an interesting character from the reading we did because of his loyalty to the individuals that he created relationships with. Being as powerful of a man as he was, it was out of character for a man of that status to express such loyalty in a system that rewarded selfishness. He expressed this through his veto of the movement against Caesar, and his suicide on the behalf of Cleopatra, believing that she had  been killed.

  1. Mark Antony is definitely an interesting character, both a loyal follower of Caesar and a ruthless tyrant in his own right. I'm looking forward to seeing him (or rather, Richard Burton as M. A.) with you all in "Cleopatra."
