Julius Caesar, reception of
No full textThe reception of Caesar constitutes, for obvious reasons, an immense topic. As a political idea, Caesar exhibits from the very beginning a tension between his role as dictator and destroyer of the Republic and his standing as the political and military genius who founded the Empire. This contrariety, not least by way of the analytic category of Caesarism, is especially marked in the political discourse of the 19th and 20th centuries. Caesar’s literary reception, though influenced by contemporary political conflicts, is not always tethered to them in straightforward ways. The Caesar of literature is often a reaction to the Caesar of Shakespeare. And there are other important issues: Caesar as a problem in the recovery of authenticity, or Caesar, because he is a canonical author, as a symbol of the conservative claims of the established order. In art, Caesar the god and Caesar the chivalrous king gradually give way to Caesar the slain dictator or Caesar the imperious conqueror. In popular culture, however, Caesar’s manifestations vary wildly: although he continues to register at a political level, he can also signify imperial excess or martial prowess, and he is available as a medium for lampooning the various guises of his own reception.</p
JULIUS CAESAR PERSONALITY IN POETRY BY V. BRUSOV
No full textThe paper deals with V. Brusov’s verses «Julius Caesar», «October 1917» and «Caesar to Cleopatra». According to the paper’s author, Caesar depicted by V. Brusov is not only a politician, commander and master of Rome, but a person ruled by passion, feelings and emotions. The paper concludes that V. Brusov’s verses provide historic details of the Ancient Rome epoch. The author also identifies convergences, since both V. Brusov and Caesar strived for dominance – Caesar ruled over Rome, while V. Brusov was preponderant in his literary surrounding

Sulla and Caesar
No full textВ статье анализируется конфликт Цезаря с Суллой в 82 г. до н.э. Автор подкрепляет дополнительными аргументами позицию тех ученых, которые придерживаются той точки зрения, что имени Цезаря не было в проскрипционных списках. Собственность Цезаря, очевидно, не была конфискована, и он не прятался от inquisitores Суллы. Он лишь покинул Рим, дожидаясь решения диктатора, раздраженного отказом Цезаря развестись со своей женой, дочерью Цинны Корнелией. Корнелий Фагита, который, как полагают, догнал Цезаря в Сабинии, был послан туда, согласно точке зрения автора статьи, не для того, чтобы взять Цезаря под арест, а чтобы сообщить тому решение Суллы. Вероятно, диктатор позволил Цезарю не разводиться с женой, но велел оставить Италию и отправиться в Азию, дабы служить там под началом Минуция Терма. Драматическая история об этом событии возникла, по мнению автора, только в 60-х гг. до н.э., когда по Риму пошла волна антисулланских настроений, и в интересах Цезаря было подчеркнуть свое сопротивление покойному диктатору. The article deals with the conflict between Sulla and Caesar in 82 BC. Author strenghtens argumentation of those scholars who believe that Caesar was not proscribed. In is obvious that Caesar's property was not confiscated, and he did not hide from Sulla's inquisitores. He only left Rome waiting for decision of dictator who was irritated with Caesar's refusal to divorce his wife Cornelia, Cinna's daughter. Cornelius Fagita who is supposed to overtake Caesar in Sabina, was sent there according to author no to arrest Caesar but to tell him Sulla's decision. Dictator probably allowed Caesar not to make divorce but ordered to leave Italy and to depart for Asia and serve under Minucius Thermus. Dramatic story which came to us on this subject emerged to the author's mind only in 60es BC, when anti-sullan wave was arising in Roman public opinion and Caesar's interest was to empharize his antagonism to deceased dictator.Переработанный вариант статьи см. по адресу: http://elar.uniyar.ac.ru/jspui/handle/123456789/3504
(Review) Caesar in Gaul and Rome: War in Words
No full text“[Andrew M. Riggsby has written] . . . an insightful monograph on the Caesarian portion of the BG [De bello Gallico]. The result will prove useful not only to those interested in Caesar, but also to scholars whose work focuses on the nature of Roman imperialism and ancient ethnography. . . . Caesar in Gaul and Rome demonstrates its author\u27s familiarity with contemporary theoretical perspectives (postcolonialism, semiotics, etc.), yet never seems dogmatic or arcane. [The author] may not single-handedly reverse [negative] scholarly attitudes toward Caesar\u27s commentarii, but his work goes a long way toward demonstrating what can be gleaned from a text normally—and unfortunately—reserved for novice students of Latin.

The Road to Caesar: Establishing the Beginning of the End of the Roman Republic
No full textThis essay will focus on the primary reasons for Rome’s transition from a Republic to an Empire. Much has been said about this period, most of which emphasizes Caesar as the primary focal point. However, only by analyzing the events and people that led to Caesar’s rule can we gain a more comprehensive understanding of the collapse of the Roman Republic. The later stages of the Republic culminated centuries of turmoil between the people of Rome and their government. Rome’s citizens now demanded more control of their lives through independence. Meanwhile, in the political sphere, the same idea of individualism sparked rivalries between men like Marius, Sulla, Pompey, Crassus, and Caesar—with Caesar ultimately gaining control over the Republic. Consequently, these men all attributed to the destruction of western democracy, and the creation one of the most powerful empires the world has known.Peer reviewe
Caesarian Conflict: Portrayals of Julius Caesar in narratives of civil war
No full textThesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2012This dissertation investigates the poignancy of civil war for Rome in the late Republican through early Imperial period, as focalized through depictions of Julius Caesar and, to a more limited degree, the Caesar-like Catiline. My comparative examination of Sallust's Bellum Catilinae, Velleius Paterculus' Historiae, and Lucan's Pharsalia centers on how each author treats qualities and catchwords found in Caesar's self-portrait in the Bellum Civile. By reading each portrayal of Caesar against the general's own account of civil war, I contend that one finds shifts in issues and traits according to their relevance to an author's own times, aims, and view of the relationship between Republic and Principate. Moreover, I suggest that whether an author portrays Julius Caesar in a positive or negative light is likely a consequence of his view of the current "Caesar" (i.e., Octavian, Tiberius, or Nero)
