Pharsalia, also known as De Bello Civili (On the Civil War), is a Latin epic poem by Marcus Annaeus Lucanus, commonly known as Lucan, detailing the civil war between Julius Caesar and the forces of the Roman Senate led by Pompey the Great. This edition presents the complete text in Latin, offering readers access to Lucan's powerful verse and vivid depiction of one of the most transformative periods in Roman history.
Lucan's work stands as a significant historical and literary achievement, providing insight into the political tensions and military conflicts that defined the late Roman Republic. His dramatic portrayal of key battles, such as the Battle of Pharsalus, and his exploration of moral and philosophical themes continue to resonate with scholars and enthusiasts of classical literature.
