Description

The epic poem "Civil War" by Lucan is a masterful account of one of history's most pivotal conflicts. Written in Latin, this work chronicles the battle between Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great, which ultimately led to the downfall of the Roman Republic and the establishment of the Roman Empire. Divided into ten books, the poem follows Caesar's march from Spain to Egypt, with a wide cast of characters including Brutus, Cicero, and Cleopatra. Lucan's poetic gift brings this important war to life, using his verse to create a work that is both informative and symbolic. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper. A powerful exploration of violence, politics, and sacrifice, "Civil War" remains an essential read for those interested in Roman history and epic poetry.
