After reading the interview with the well-respected and excellent author Adrian Goldsworthy about his book Antony and Cleopatra, I still feel that Antony may have been unfairly and inaccurately depicted by history. There may have been more of an element of enlightenment to Antony than his critics, including Augustus, would admit.
