Master of Rome: A Life of Julius Caesar by David Potter
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 4.0 MB
Overview: By any measure, Julius Caesar is one of the most significant and famous figures in Roman history. Self-identified as a “popular” politician, he advocated for effective government to better the lives of average Romans, but believed such a government could not be based upon the existing democracy. Only through his personal authority and the massive organization he built to overthrow the government could the prosperity of all Rome’s citizens be ensured.
Through a careful analysis of the ancient sources, especially Caesar’s own writings, David Potter offers us a stunning and original portrait of this great general and statesman. Master of Rome reveals Caesar as a highly organized manager with an extraordinary ability to adjust to circumstances while maintaining the ancient equivalent of a positive “media presence.” After his death, Caesar’s followers put forward a narrative of his life that made his rise to power seem inevitable, but Caesar’s own writing tells us a different story–one of a detail-oriented general who demanded a high degree of accountability from his subordinates.
