reviewed The Fall of the Roman Republic: Six Lives: Marius, Sulla, Crassus, Pompey, Caesar, Cicero on July 09, 2020 The Fall of the Roman Republic: Six Lives: Marius, Sulla, Crassus, Pompey, Caesar, Cicero
A brilliant look at the main players of the fall of the Roman Republic.
Particularly fascinating were the politics involving the first triumvirate of Crassus, Pompey and Caesar - Crassus had the money, Pompey had the military prestige, and Caesar was the conqueror of Gaul.
Plutarch details how the death of Crassus in Parthia unbalanced the triumvirate, leading to a civil war that caused the ignoble death of Pompey and the rise of Julius Caesar, before meeting his fate on the ides of March.
This is a must read for anyone interested in Roman history, as it's a great guide to the political situation at the time and should further anyone's understanding of the era. There's a reason Shakespeare took so much inspiration from Plutarch.
