Wikipedia, Feb. 1, 2013 (Antony and Cleopatra is a tragedy by William Shakespeare. The play was first printed in the First Folio of 1623; It is difficult to put Antony and Cleopatra in a single genre. It can be classified as a history play (though it does not completely adhere to historical account), tragedy (though not completely in Aristotelian terms), comedy and romance. Many scholars believe it was written in 1606-07, although some researchers argue for an earlier dating, around 1603-04. Antony and Cleopatra was entered in the Stationers' Register (an early form of copyright for printed works) in May 1608, but it does not seem to have been actually printed until the publication of the First Folio in 1623. The Folio is therefore the only authoritative text we have today.)

The libretto was prepared by Franco Zeffirelli based on the play Antony and Cleopatra by Shakespeare. It originally made use of Shakespeare's language exclusively.)
