Topics
Billie Hindle: 本集播客介绍了罗马内战后权力斗争的背景,以及主要人物马克·安东尼和屋大维之间的关系和矛盾。他们面临着罗马即将崩溃的局面,需要与埃及女王克利奥帕特拉合作来拯救罗马。屋大维的妹妹奥克塔维亚是一个不循规蹈矩的罗马贵妇,她的行为也为剧情增添了色彩。 Kazeem Tosin Amore (Mark Antony): 安东尼在军队面前发表胜利演说,赞扬士兵们的英勇和奉献精神。他与富尔维娅庆祝胜利,并声称自己掌控罗马。但他拒绝杀死屋大维,因为他和凯撒是朋友。安东尼展现出他强烈的个人魅力和政治手腕,但他同时也是一个不负责任的人。在与屋大维的会面中,安东尼表现出对政治的漠不关心,更关注于享乐。他最终决定入侵埃及以解决罗马的财政和粮食问题。 Harry Roebuck (Gaius Octavius): 屋大维在胜利庆典上表现得非常紧张,难以发表讲话。他是一个认真负责的人,发现了叙利亚总督的腐败问题。在与安东尼的对话中,屋大维表现出对政治的认真态度,但他缺乏安东尼的个人魅力和政治手腕。他最终同意安东尼入侵埃及的计划。 Sarah Agha & Lara Sawalha (Cleopatra & Charmian): 克利奥帕特拉和她的侍女夏米安讨论了罗马三巨头的情况,并准备迎接他们的到来。克利奥帕特拉处死了她的丈夫托勒密,展现了她冷酷无情的一面,也预示着她将利用罗马三巨头之间的矛盾来达到自己的目的。 Octavia: 奥克塔维娅与屋大维讨论了她的剧团以及剧团对屋大维的讽刺。她展现了一个独立、叛逆的女性形象,与传统罗马贵妇的形象形成鲜明对比。她对政治并不关心,更关注于自己的生活和爱好。 Lepidus: 莱皮德斯是一个愚蠢但有用的角色,他为三巨头的形成提供了机会,也为剧情增添了喜剧效果。 其他角色:其他角色,例如富尔维娅、士兵们等,也为剧情增添了色彩,展现了罗马社会各个阶层的不同面貌。
