Cleopatra, a name that evokes the image of a beautiful lady famous for her associations with high ranking Romans of her times. Her beauty has been eulogised so much. Recently from one of my students I heard a new fact about her. (Learning is a never ending process.) She was a formidable scholar who knew seven languages. Besides, she was a naval commander too. Indeed she was an intelligent lady whose brainy factor was eclipsed by the interesting factors.
