Near balanceFormula-derived score

Triumvir whose proscriptions, Philippi, Donations, Actium, and Alexandrian end reach the public through Plutarch, Appian, Cicero’s Philippics, and Dio. Documented harms: killing-lists, civil war, propaganda. Octavian-era stories are not stenographs.

Impact

Not rated yet: the verified records linked to this person, without a numeric impact.

Editorial assessment (context, not the score)

The page is not a marble lover and not a unique author of 43 BCE. The heaviest documented costs in public English are triumviral killing-lists, Philippi and Actium, and Cicero’s death as later told. The offsets are Plutarch/Appian access and veteran-provision as a split path. He did not file 1920. Editors did that work. Confidence is high on those pages, medium on unique eastern sums. Later Plutarch pages remain the dated record. Confidence is high on the kept public pages, medium on contested authorship, low on unique modern indicator coefficients.

Expert analysis

An excerpt; the full analysis opens on request.

The first fact about Mark Antony is a proscription list, not a marble lover. Perseus Plutarch at https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0243 (opens in a new tab) and Appian at https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0230 (opens in a new tab) print lists and wars. Cicero Philippics at https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.02.0011 (opens in a new tab) are a hatred-file. Britannica at https://www.britannica.com/biography/Mark-Antony-Roman-triumvir (opens in a new tab) frames offices. Cleopatra’s page at https://www.britannica.com/biography/Cleopatra-queen-of-Egypt (opens in a new tab) is the alliance heading. Loeb Plutarch at https://www.hup.harvard.edu/books/9780674991149 (opens in a new tab) is industrial English. Folger at https://www.folger.edu/ (opens in a new tab) marks 1623 reception. The offsets are also URLs. BM coins at https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection (opens in a new tab) and Capitoline at https://www.museicapitolini.org/en (opens in a new tab) are faces-as-objects. UNESCO Rome at https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/91/ (opens in a new tab) is a later landscape. Cambridge studies treat shared office. What the score must not say: that he uniquely authored every proscription name; that 1623 is 30 BCE; that Donations wording is a stenograph; that a suicide-room is a GPS file. Complex contribution is the honest type. Confidence is high on the printed lists and wars, medium on unique Parthian losses, low on unique bedroom details. Related people are Cleopatra, Octavian, Julius Caesar, Cicero. 1920 is a Loeb. 43 is received on a later carrier. Shared lists remain shared. The useful question is which later public pages still move proscription, Actium, and alliance under his name. Keep lists Philippi Actium and Donations on separate dates. Later Loeb, UNESCO, and encyclopedia pages are evidence, not additional acts. Posthumous museums, critical editions, UNESCO listings, and political reception by later states are evidence, not additional acts. Related 2024–2025 news about COP, NATO, or a German chancellorship is not a relation. Hostile vita slander is not upgraded. Off-family indicator padding is refused. Confidence is high on named public pages, medium on unique coefficients, low on anecdote.
