But what did Caesar intend to accomplish by writing and publishing his commentaries, how did he go about it, and what potentially unforeseen consequences did his writing have? These are the questions that Andrew Riggsby pursues in this fresh interpretation of one of the masterworks of Latin prose. Riggsby uses contemporary literary methods to examine the historical impact that the commentaries had on the Roman reading public.GaulHistoryGallic Wars, 58-51 B.CPolitical aspectsRomeHistory, Military265-30 B.CCaesar, JuliusGaulRomeHistory936.4/02Riggsby Andrew M474978MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957581403321Caesar in Gaul and Rome1095024UNINA
