Synopsis

English summary: "In this book, we hear Cicero's voice, and encounter the hopes and ambitions of Caesar (100-44 BC) in the very places where their words were spoken and thought. It is important to know what images they found in the ornaments decorating the monuments of their time, and attempted to share with their fellow citizens. Rome is a theatre whose dcor is merely waiting for the right actors. Actors who might well be us, when books of this quality make stones speak." - Pierre Grimal French description: Nous entendons la voix de Ciceron, nous decouvrons les esperances et les ambitions de Cesar (100-44 av. J.-C.), sur les lieux meme ou ils avaient parle ou pense. Il n'est pas sans importance de savoir quelles images offraient a leurs yeux la decoration des monuments qu'ils pouvaient voir, quelles images, aussi, ils avaient voulu proposer au regard de leurs concitoyens. Rome est un theatre ou le decor attend les acteurs. Ces acteurs que nous pouvons etre nous-memes, lorsque grace a des livres comme celui-ci, les pierres se mettent a parler. Pierre Grimal
