De Slag bij Actium in 31 v.Chr., die bijna 200.000 mensen het leven kostte, was een scharnierpunt in de geschiedenis. Octavianus, de latere keizer Augustus, won de zeeslag van misschien wel het bekendste liefdespaar uit de geschiedenis: Marcus Antonius en Cleopatra. Hun vloot werd bijna geheel verslagen en Marcus Antonius en Cleopatra pleegden zelfmoord. Hun drie gezamenlijke kinderen werden in Rome opgevoed door Octavia, de zus van Octavianus en ex-vrouw van Marcus Antonius. Hadden Marcus Antonius en Cleopatra gewonnen, dan was wellicht Alexandrië de hoofdstad geworden van het Romeinse Rijk. Hoogleraar geschiedenis Barry Strauss vertelt op meeslepende wijze het verhaal van deze bekende slag.

As history's first democracy, classical Athens invited political discourse. The Athenians, however could not completely separate the politicals from the private sphere; indeed father-son conflict, from patricide to murdering one's son, was a major public as well as a private theme. In a fascinating historical reappraisal, the author explores the consequences, for Athens and us, of the powerful influence of familial ideology on politics.
