Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -In The Civil War, Julius Caesar offers a terse, controlled account of the conflict that shattered the Roman Republic, from his crossing of the Rubicon through the campaigns against Pompey and the senatorial forces. Written in the lucid, seemingly impersonal style of Roman commentarii, the work is at once military narrative, political apologia, and masterpiece of strategic self-presentation. Its spare prose, careful sequencing of events, and emphasis on clemency place it within the tradition of Roman historical writing while subtly reshaping public memory. Caesar was not merely an observer but the principal actor in the drama he records: general, politician, pontifex maximus, and eventually dictator. His long rivalry with Pompey, his conflicts with the Senate, and his need to justify extraordinary actions before Roman and provincial audiences deeply inform the text. The book reflects a commander's eye for logistics and morale, but also a statesman's sensitivity to legitimacy, reputation, and the language of necessity. This work is essential for readers interested in Roman history, political rhetoric, military leadership, or the decline of republican institutions. It rewards close reading, not only for what Caesar says, but for what his elegant restraint leaves unsaid. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9788028335311
