Gaius Julius Caesar, E-bok
Antiikin tunnetuin roomalainen, Gaius Julius Caesar, herättää vahvoja ja ristiriitaisiakin mielikuvia. Hän oli tyranni ja vallananastaja, maineikas sotapäällikkö ja Rooman valtakunnan nerokas suuruuden luoja - mutta myös kiinnostava persoona kaikkine vikoineen ja haavoittuvuuksineen. Hänen poikkeuksellinen jälkivaikutuksensa näkyy meidän aikanamme edelleen.Gaius Julius Caesar matkaa kuohuvalle ensimmäiselle vuosisadalle ennen ajanlaskumme alkua. Se tutustuttaa päähenkilöönsä ihmisenä, jumalten suosikkina, julmana diktaattorina, älykkäänä strategina, kirjailijana ja rakastajana. Samalla tarkastellaan laajemmin aikakauden roomalaista yhteiskuntaa, kulttuuria ja arkista elämää sekä Caesarin merkitystä myöhempinä vuosisatoina.Teos tuo esiin murroksen, kun valtarakenteet ja arvot alkoivat muuttua tasavallan ajan lopun Roomassa. Kuvatessaan Caesarin välityksellä roomalaisten populistipoliitikkojen nousua, kärjistyvää poliittista vastakkainasettelua ja sotaisaa propagandaa se luo hätkähdyttäviäkin yhtymäkohtia nykypäivään.

JULIUS CAESAR
The authoritative edition of Julius Caesar from The Folger Shakespeare Library, the trusted and widely used Shakespeare series for students and general readers. Shakespeare may have written Julius Caesar as the first of his plays to be performed at the Globe, in 1599. For it, he turned to a key event in Roman history: Caesar’s death at the hands of friends and fellow politicians. Renaissance writers disagreed over the assassination, seeing Brutus, a leading conspirator, as either hero or villain. Shakespeare’s play keeps this debate alive. This edition includes: -Freshly edited text based on the best early printed version of the play -Newly revised explanatory notes conveniently placed on pages facing the text of the play -Scene-by-scene plot summaries -A key to the play’s famous lines and phrases -An introduction to reading Shakespeare’s language -An essay by a leading Shakespeare scholar providing a modern perspective on the play -Fresh images from the Folger Shakespeare Library’s

Julius Caesar
A fascinating, comprehensive biography of the cunning Roman conqueror Julius Caesar. More than two thousand years after his death, Julius Caesar remains one of the great figures of history. He shaped Rome for generations, and his name became a synonym for 'emperor'--not only in Rome but as far away as Germany and Russia. He is best known as the general who defeated the Gauls and doubled the size of Rome's territories. But, as Philip Freeman describes in this fascinating new biography, Caesar was also a brilliant orator, an accomplished writer, a skilled politician, and much more. Julius Caesar was a complex man, both hero and villain. He possessed great courage, ambition, honor, and vanity. Born into a noble family that had long been in decline, he advanced his career cunningly, beginning as a priest and eventually becoming Rome's leading general. He made alliances with his rivals and then discarded them when it suited him. He was a spokesman for the ordinary people of Rome, who

Julius Caesar, Ljudbok
Ingen kan undgå att känna till hans namn, mannen som gav upphov till titeln kejsare – Caesar. Odödliggjord genom såväl namnet som filmer, pjäser, Asterix-album och inte minst gärningen som Roms härskare. Hans rykte som fältherre och statsman saknar motstycke. Han besatt en ovanlig förmåga att agera taktiskt både på slagfältet och i politiken. Detta skulle få honom att gå långt – för långt enligt vissa.I denna behändiga biografi över mannen som blev ett begrepp, Gaius Julius Caesar, tecknar Dick Harrison bilden av människan bakom myten. Det är en motsägelsefull bild, eftersom somliga har betraktat Caesar som en tyrann medan andra har sett honom som en hjälte. Harrisons översiktliga grepp visar på orsakerna till de djupa avtryck Caesar har satt i historieböckerna.
