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

Kring maktens fåfänglighet och det politiska våldet kretsar Shakespeares tragedi.»I am as constant as the Northern star« (Jag är orubblig som polstjärnan), säger Julius Cæsar ögonblicket innan han faller brutalt mördad av Brutus och hans sammansvurnas knivhugg.

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

Gallic War (Royal Collector's Edition) (Case Laminate Hardcover with Jacket)
The Gallic War, is a firsthand account of Julius Caesar's campaigns in Gaul over an eight-year period. Caesar's narrative not only captures his military tactics but also reflects his political acumen, particularly evident in his expeditions across the Rhine and the English Channel in 55 BC to bolster his reputation back in Rome. Caesar's strategic prowess is demonstrated in the decisive victory at the Battle of Alesia in 52 BC against a united Gallic rebellion led by Vercingetorix. Caesar's accounts, while showcasing his military genius, also served as propaganda, enhancing his stature in Rome, which ultimately played a crucial role in his rise to power and the eventual transformation from the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire. The work not only chronicles warfare but also Caesar's diplomatic engagements and the brutal realities of Roman expansionism, providing a critical lens into the events that shaped Western history.
