Description

"The Pharsalia" is Lucan's epic on the civil wars between Caesar and Pompey. It is a poem of energy in which spectacle and spectatorship are prominent. The author shows that by transforming certain Virgilian narrative devices Lucan launches an attack on the Augustan ideology of the Aeneid.
