Annotation:
	"Maps out an early modern view of breath important to understanding and complicating Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra both semantically within the text and somatically between actors and audiences." Points to breath as mythologizing, preserving, and interrupting, focusing on the function of Cleopatra's perfume and drawing examples from Gary Griffin's Stratford Festival production (q.v.), directed for film by Barry Avrich.
