The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 13.2463  Monday, 23 December 2002

Subject:        Questions

Hello! I have a couple of questions I would like to post.

1:  Antony & Cleopatra:  Cleo is such a selfish drama queen, which leads
me to ask: does she commit suicide to be with Antony or to escape
Caesar?

2: Romeo & Juliet:  The final line of the play reverses the name order
of the title to Juliet & her Romeo. Might it be because she has finally
won power over a patriarchal society?
