Descripción Paperback or Softback. Condición: New. Caesar: Bellum Gallicum Book VII 1.03. Book. Nº de ref. del artículo: BBS-9781009177146
Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This is the first commentary on Caesar's Bellum Gallicum to approach it as a literary text. It attempts a contextualized reading of the work through the eyes of a contemporary Roman reader, who was trained in rhetoric, versed in Greek and Roman literature, and familiar with the same political and cultural conventions and discourses as its author. In appreciating Caesar as a writer and situating the seventh book of the Bellum Gallicum within its 'horizon of expectations' and especially its historiographical tradition, it reveals much that rewards careful attention, including: a dramatized narrative, sustained intertextual borrowings and allusions (especially from and to Thucydides and Polybius), (in)direct speeches telling of Rome's second-greatest speaker, and word- and sound-play telling of the leading linguist, not to mention artful technical descriptions that lack parallels in the Roman republic. Ultimately, both author and text emerge as quite different from their grossly generalized reputations. The first commentary on Caesar's Bellum Gallicum to approach it as a literary text. Students will appreciate the drama of the narrative, the sustained intertextual borrowings and allusions, the rhetoric of the speeches, and the artistry of the language. Both author and text emerge in a completely new light. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
