Caesar (C. Iulius, 102–44 BCE), statesman and soldier, defied the dictator Sulla; served in the Mithridatic wars and in Spain; pushed his way in Roman politics as a ’democrat’ against the senatorial government; was the real leader of the coalition with Pompey and Crassus; conquered all Gaul for Rome; attacked Britain twice; was forced into civil war; became master of the Roman world; and achieved wide-reaching reforms until his murder. We have his books of Commentarii (notes): eight on his wars in Gaul, 58–52 BC, including the two expeditions to Britain 55–54, and three on the civil war of 49–48. They are records of his own campaigns (with occasional digressions) in vigorous, direct, clear, unemotional style and in the third person, the account of the civil war being somewhat more impassioned.
Loeb Classical Library 39
The history of the Roman Republic for the years 49-48 BCE centers on two striking personalities: Julius Caesar and Pompey. Caesar’s account of the war between them, from its outbreak to the decisive battle of Pharsalus in 48--in lucid and spare prose--is here well translated by Peskett.

評分內戰記和高盧戰記兩部著作,得以讓後人與兩韆年前的凱撒大帝“親密”接觸。跟隨凱撒的鷹幟轉戰意大利,亞曆山大,敘利亞,阿非利加,西班牙,仿佛也親身經曆瞭羅馬帝國的崛起和榮耀。相比曆史學傢,文人墨客筆下記載的偉人,在凱撒傳世的文字中,我們能瞭解到他更真實,更富人...
評分總覺得凱撒與曹操有很多相似之處:齣身豪族,胸懷大誌;文能安邦,武能定國;戰場上勇猛果敢,深得士卒愛戴;政壇上成熟老練,兼以王霸之道;文筆簡約大氣,名揚後世;都是好色之人,連愛好人妻這一點都很像;平生誌願是開疆拓土,然而都不由自主走到瞭政壇之巔,雖有種種考量...
