Topic: Antony Cope


  
  Antony, Cleopatra, Augustus Overview
Antony wielded a good deal of power as consul and as Caesar's second in command, but enjoyed little personal authority and dared not assert himself too strongly, lest he meet a fate similar to that of Caesar.
Antony, Octavian could claim, had become the thrall of a depraved eastern monarch: he had "gone native" and (Octavian claimed) planned to reduce Rome to a mere subject state, transferring the capital of the empire to Egypt.
Moreover, Antony's Egyptian fleet was outnumbered and out-generaled by Octavian's fleet, led by Agrippa.

The decision by the Antony Government ('Antony stand leaves Cong red in the face', The Hindu, May 6, 2003) comes in the wake of a series of recent reports on the communal violence in Marad in Kerala.
Antony's move to permit the distribution of trishuls in Kerala’s commercial hub, Kochi, raises a lot of disturbing questions.
Supporters of Antony can draw some consolation from the fact that the diminutive leader was only doing what his political masters in Delhi were mute witnesses to.

 Antony Beevor
Antony Beevor's award-winning book Stalingrad dug out human drama from the once inaccessible archives and wove it into a riveting tale of awesome brutality.
For a readership, the majority of which has never experienced war at first hand, this is fascinating stuff and explains in large part Beevor's success in engaging the interest of younger generations in the events of the Second World War.
'Antony Beevor is a British historian of great distinction and range, who has written widely on military affairs in the twentieth century.

 [No title]
Here Barine now received her guests, and the renown of these paintings was not one of the smallest inducements which had led Antony to visit the young beauty and to take his son, in whom he wished to awaken at least a fleeting pleasure in art.
Antony, when paying his second visit, had laughingly laid the garland he wore before "the greatest of human conquerors," while a short time ago his son Antyllus had rudely thrust his bouquet of flowers into the opening of the curved right arm which was drawing the string.
Antony consented to form an alliance with his rival, and, as security for the sincerity of the reconciliation, he gave his hand in marriage to Octavia, whose first husband, Marcellus, had just died--his hand, I say, only his hand, for his heart was captive to the Queen of Egypt.

 [No title]
Antony had honoured him with the proud title of "King of kings"; yet he was permitted neither to rule nor even to issue orders, for his mother kept him aloof from affairs of state, and he himself had no desire to hold the sceptre.
The remark made about the Queen the evening before by Antyllus, Antony's nineteen-year-old son, at the house of Barine, a beautiful young woman who attracted all the prominent men in Alexandria, was the more imprudent because it coincided with the opinion of all the wisest heads.
Many a joyous Io and loud Evoe to Cleopatra, the new Isis, and Antony, the new Dionysus, resounded through the air, while bearded and smooth, delicate Greek and thick Egyptian lips joined in the shout, "To the Sebasteum!" This was the royal palace, which faced the government building containing the Regent's residence.

In the year 33 B.C. Mark Antony began a campaign against the Parthians, whom the Romans never forgave for the crushing defeat at Carræ.
Antony was at the time engaged in besieging Phraaspa.
He was obliged to abandon the siege, but the pursuit of the Parthians was so vigorous that the Roman general was hardly able to reach the frontier of Armenia after losing thirty thousand of his best troops.

Of Livy, we have a fragment by Antony Cope (1544), and a version of all that remains by the incomparable Philemon Holland (1600), to whose industry also are due Suetonius (1606), Ammianus Marcellinus (1609) and Xenophon’s Cyropaedia (1632).

 Cleopatra by Georg Ebers : Arthur's Classic Novels
Besides, it was certain -- Antony's stanchest friends made no attempt to conceal the fact -- that the Queen's presence with the army exerted a disturbing influence, and could not fail to curb the daring courage of the brave general.
But even after the latter had deserted Octavia, the sister of Octavianus, to return to Cleopatra, the object of his love, and there was an open breach between the two rivals for the sovereignty of the world, Antony had been friendly to Arius and borne him no grudge for his close relations to his rival.
The Queen, too, had heard her, and, after the Adonis festival, her uncle Arius had presented her to Antony, who expressed his admiration with all the fervour of his frank nature, and afterwards came to her house a second time, accompanied by his son Antyllus.

 Cadenza 13 reviewed on the official website of Laura Hird
‘Spontaneous’ by Antony Davies is extremely funny, but there’s a serious inconsistency in the use of tense, with the narration constantly switching back and forth between past and present for no good reason.
Meanwhile, ‘Some Facts About Stars’ by Wendy Cope opens the poetry section, and John Costello’s ‘Stars’ appears at the end, providing a nice symmetry.
There are other poems and stories that deserve a mention, and non-fiction too, including an interview with Jim Crace, and an article on writing by Roger Harvey.
