Book excerpt: Excerpt from Caesar and Pompey in Greece: Selections From Caesar's Civil War, Book III To aid in the study 'of termination: a table is given containing some of the more common and most important. So far as I have observed, this feature is entirely new. Under each termination is placed a list of words taken from the text to illustrate its force as simply as possible. As continual repetition is necessary to fix the force of terminations, it seemed that a list, containing neither too many endings nor too many illustrations, would prove to be of use to both teacher and taught.

Some were like our common ladders. Some consisted of several parts which, when put together, formed one large ladder. Others were made entirely of ropes or leather, and had large iron hooks at the end with which to fasten them to the wall. Those mentioned in the text seem to have been constructed on the spot out of raw material. 33 11 musculosque: a sort of siied, much stronger than the vinea. Caesar describes one constructed to undermine the walls of Massilia. Two timbers were laid side by side on the ground, four feet apart, in which were set upright posts five feet high; these were joined together by rafters, and the whole was roofed over with timbers two feet thick, which were held in place by metal plates and nails. The roof was then covered with bricks and mortar, kept in place by pieces of wood fastened along the edges of the roof and projecting above it. The bricks and mortar would protect the mu sculus against fire but not against water, so they were covered with skins; but as the skins were not proof against fire, they were covered with rags, which would deaden the blows of the stones and would not readily burn. 33 12 crates: hurdles, fascines, --twigs or osiers interwoven or bound up in bundles. They were used in an assault to ward off the enemy's missiles, being placed over the soldier's head; in 10 23 Caesar uses them like plutei, as a shelter for the men to work behind, while intrenching themselves. Light ones were sometimes used to fill up moats outside the fortifications of a town, in order to facilitate the assaults of the besiegers. Pluteus. I 33 14...
Book Synopsis The Battle of Pharsalus (48 BC) by : Gareth C Sampson
Download or read book The Battle of Pharsalus (48 BC) written by Gareth C Sampson and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August 48 BC, following the earlier battle at Dyrrhachium, the two greatest Roman commanders of their generation met in battle again at Pharsalus in Greece. Julius Caesar, conqueror of Gaul, had been defeated at Dyrrhachium and forced to retreat but now stood at bay to face Pompey the Great, conqueror of the East. At stake lay the future of the ailing Roman Republic, each man believing he alone had the solution to restoring Republican government. Gareth Sampson examines the campaigns which led up to the battle as well as the role played by the various regional powers who got drawn into the Roman Civil War. The Battle of Pharsalus itself is analyzed in detail to determine the strengths and weakness of both armies and their various commanders, as well as the organization, equipment and tactics of the forces involved in the battle which culminated in a decisive victory for Caesar. The author concludes with consideration of the aftermath of the battle, which saw Pompey murdered in Egypt and Caesar distracted by the affairs of the East.

Book Synopsis Julius Caesar in Egypt by : Philip Matyszak
Download or read book Julius Caesar in Egypt written by Philip Matyszak and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 48 BC the armies of Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great fought a decisive battle at Pharsalus in Greece. Pompey was comprehensively defeated and fled to the last power in the Mediterranean world that was independent of Rome, Ptolemaic Egypt. Caesar pursued Pompey and was presented with his severed head, which the Egyptians hoped would make Caesar leave them in peace. Instead, Caesar – as if he did not have enough to do already – plunged gleefully into the world of Egyptian palace politics, riven by dynastic dispute. He quickly sided with the beguiling Queen Cleopatra (after her famous carpet trick), despite having little more than a bodyguard with him. Most of his army was still in Greece, leaving him massively outnumbered by the Egyptian forces. The Romans were besieged in Alexandria for seven months before reinforcements could get through to them. Julius Caesar in Egypt is a true story of double-cross, assassination and intrigue accompanied by lively battles, daring escapes, disastrous fires (the Great Library of Alexandria was largely destroyed in one fracas) and, if not a love story, at least a tale of sex and power as Caesar and Cleopatra’s relationship shaped these world-changing events.
Book Synopsis Caesar's Civil War by : William W. Batstone
Download or read book Caesar's Civil War written by William W. Batstone and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-10-26 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caesar's Civil War, the story of the general's contest with the Pompeian party through nineteen months of civil war, is an unfinished masterpiece. The author abandoned it when he found himself living in a different world than that which saw its commencement. The narrative ends after Pompey's death, amidst the preliminaries to the Alexandrian war that initiated the next phase of the fight for primacy of Rome. The work shows the brilliance for which Caesar's oratory, like his generalship, was known: it was a political judgment, not a literary one, that relegated the Civil War to the file drawer. The primary topics covered in this introductory book are the generic background of Caesar's commentarii or notebooks; his selection of material; the contemporary context of the civil war; the literary techniques that carry the story; and the work's characterization and structure. General aids to the reader include maps to accompany the particular narrative events discussed, a timeline of Caesar's life and the civil war, explanations of technical terms of Roman history, and a section on Roman names and prominent persons of Caesar's time.
Book Synopsis Julius Caesar by : William Shakespeare
Download or read book Julius Caesar written by William Shakespeare and published by Akasha Classics. This book was released on 2010-02-12 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What actions are justified when the fate of a nation hangs in the balance, and who can see the best path ahead? Julius Caesar has led Rome successfully in the war against Pompey and returns celebrated and beloved by the people. Yet in the senate fears intensify that his power may become supreme and threaten the welfare of the republic. A plot for his murder is hatched by Caius Cassius who persuades Marcus Brutus to support him. Though Brutus has doubts, he joins Cassius and helps organize a group of conspirators that assassinate Caesar on the Ides of March. But, what is the cost to a nation now erupting into civil war? A fascinating study of political power, the consequences of actions, the meaning of loyalty and the false motives that guide the actions of men, Julius Caesar is action packed theater at its finest.
