Abstract
One of the most intriguing romance stories in Rome 1st
century BC, Marcus Antonius and Cleopatra VII have
prompted the question of whether their romance was
based more in the political or in the personal realm.
Plutarch (c. 100 CE) is our main source. Based on
literary choices, the question is explored through the
lens of idiom (personal self) and koinon (communal
self).
