Sister-Queens in the High Hellenistic Period is a cutting-edge
exploration of ancient queenship and the significance of family
politics in the dysfunctional dynasties of the late Hellenistic
world. This volume, the first full-length study of Kleopatra III
and Kleopatra Thea and their careers as queens of Egypt and Syria,
thoroughly examines the roles and ideology of royal daughters,
wives, and queens in Egypt, the ancient Near East, and ancient
Israel and provides a comprehensive study of the iconography,
public image, and titles of each queen and their cultural
precedents. In addition, this book also offers an introduction to
the critical concept of the 'High Hellenistic Period' and the
maturation of royal female power in the second century BCE.
Sister-Queens in the High Hellenistic Period is suitable for
students and scholars in ancient history, Egyptology, classics, and
gender studies, as well as the general reader interested in ancient
queenship, ancient Egypt, the Hellenistic world, and gender in
antiquity.
