La fascinante historia de cómo las imágenes de los emperadores romanos han influido en el arte, la cultura y la representación del poder durante más de dos mil años.
Cómo es el rostro del poder? A quién se representa en el arte y por qué? En esta obra singular, Mary Beard -seguramente la clasicista más prestigiosa de nuestros dÃas- cuenta la historia de cómo durante más de dos milenios los retratos de los ricos, poderosos y famosos del mundo occidental han sido moldeados a partir de la imagen de los emperadores romanos, especialmente los Doce Césares. Desde el despiadado Julio César hasta el cruel Domiciano, el poder se representa a imitación del arte clásico y los dirigentes caÃdos en desgracia a menudo son caricaturizados como Nerones tocando el violÃn mientras Roma arde.
Comenzando con la importancia de los retratos imperiales en la polÃtica romana, este libro ricamente ilustrado nos ofrece un recorrido a través de dos mil años de historia del arte y la cultura, presentando una mirada fresca a las obras de artistas desde Mantegna hasta la actualidad, asà como por generaciones de tejedores, ebanistas, plateros, impresores y ceramistas. Más que la historia de una simple repetición de imágenes de hombres y mujeres imperiales, Doce césares es una historia sorprendente de identidades cambiantes, identificaciones erróneas deliberadas o desorientadas, falsificaciones y, a menudo, representaciones ambivalentes de la autoridad.
