More about the book
Focusing on the themes of fury and madness, this analysis delves into Lucan's epic poem about the civil war between Caesar and Pompey. Professor Fratantuono offers a detailed examination of the text, contextualizing it within the chaotic backdrop of Nero's reign. The work stands out as the most comprehensive English-language study of the Pharsalia, paralleling his previous studies on Virgil and Ovid, and sheds light on the psychological and societal turmoil of ancient Rome.
