''Caesar: A Sketch'' is a historical biography written by James Anthony Froude about the life and legacy of Julius Caesar, one of the most famous figures in ancient Roman history. The book provides a detailed exploration of Caesar’s early life, his rise to power, and his eventual downfall. Froude examines Caesar’s military campaigns, political maneuverings, and personal relationships, offering insights into the complexities of his character and the challenges he faced as a leader. The author also delves into the broader historical context of Caesar’s time, exploring the social, cultural, and political forces that shaped ancient Rome. ''Caesar: A Sketch'' is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in ancient history, political leadership, or the complexities of human nature.The execution of Lentulus and Cethegus was received in Rome with the feeling which Caesar had anticipated. There was no active sympathy with the conspiracy, but the conspiracy was forgotten in indignation at the lawless action of the consul and the Senate. It was still violence--always violence. Was law, men asked, never to resume its authority?--was the Senate to deal at its pleasure with the lives and properties of citizens?--criminals though they might be, what right had Cicero to strangle citizens in dungeons without trial? If this was to be allowed, the constitution was at an end; Rome was no longer a republic, but an arbitrary oligarchy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
