Antony and Cleopatra deals with the changing dynamic societies and values of Rome and Egypt through the main characters of Antony and Cleopatra. The need of the lovers for each other is in many ways clearer in Antony's case than Cleopatra's, for his despair at the thought of her infidelity breaks out with greater force. Antony's whole world, together with his sense of personal identity, seems to melt away when he thinks Cleopatra has betrayed him. Antony has staked his entire self-image and his sense of soldier-hero on his love with Cleopatra, and also doubted of her love for him. In warfare Antony always likes to keep his options open and to leave himself something to fall back upon. As a result, he and his soldiers do not fight with all the fury of men feeling their backs against the wall until it is too late. But in his love with Cleopatra, Antony has no place to retreat to if he suffers a defeat. Generally, a man faced with a setback in love can at least try to make up for it by turning to satisfaction in other areas of his life. But Cleopatra has become involved in all aspects of Antony's life, and he certainly cannot look to military victories to console him for defeats relating to sexual love, when his wars have been in the service of his love. When Antony is in love, he at last comes face to face with real necessity and experiences the true need that calls upon the deepest resources of his soul. And Antony can finally learn what it is to feel the heart of loss.
In their effort to achieve independence and dominant authority as lovers, Antony and Cleopatra become completely dependent on love itself. Love gradually extends its dominion in their lives until it becomes the sole value for him and an unconditional value. So to speak, Antony relinquishes his martial qualities and pursuits the nature of a lover-hero by embracing a new culture of the Egyptian values. The price paid by the Egyptianized Antony turns to be the total loss of the Roman qualities of vigour and efficiency. Cleopatra also, who represented the chief threat to Roman values, finally gives way to them and to promises to die "after the high Roman fashion". Therefore, no other value can even be compared to love, and nothing could possibly compensate for its loss. In the end Antony and Cleopatra become a lover-hero and are transcended into "new heaven, new earths".
