Explore the captivating journey of Julius Caesar’s self-created image and its dramatic afterlife. Dr. Miryana Dimitrova’s groundbreaking study traces how Caesar’s self-representation—from his own commentaries to classical sources—was appropriated and contested in English drama from the late 1500s. Delve into themes of exceptional command, self-dramatization, and quasi-divine heroism as they appear in iconic works like Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, Handel’s opera, and early modern plays. This essential volume for students, scholars, and history enthusiasts offers profound insights into classical reception and the enduring impact of Roman figures on theatre.
