The Civil War is Caesar's masterly account of the celebrated war between himself and his great rival Pompey, from the crossing of the Rubicon in January 49 B.C. to Pompey's death and the start of the Alexandrian War in the autumn of the following year. His unfinished account of the continuing struggle with Pompey's heirs and followers is completed by the three anonymous accounts of the Alexandrian, African, and Spanish Wars, which bring the story down to within a year of Caesar's assassination in March 44 B.C. This generously annotated edition places the war in context and enables the reader to grasp it both in detail and as a whole.

Not illustrated. 1872 Excerpt: ...is anything haughtier? Sometimes, however, the subjunctive is used, as in c. 32, 'cur ferri passus esset Pompeius?' especially in the second person, where we have 'quid tandem vererentur?' and the like (Bell. Gall. 1. 14, note 4). 32. proflciscatur.. ipsi dimittant.. discedant. The asyndeton between the clauses gives the idea of a rapid summary of the possible adjustment. Cp. Bell. Gall. 1. 20 (ad finem), and 7. 89, for summaries made rapid by the omission of conjunctions. 7. 4. fore uti, &amp;c, ' some reason would be found to settle all controversy.' The periphrases 'fore ut,' "factum est ut,' Sec, represent the expected consequence as the result of the whole body of coming circumstances--' things would so turn out that,' &amp;c. 6. 0.10. cum Caesare, with the young L. Caesar. 10. reverteretur is the oblique imperative, depressed for 'revertatur,' like 'quare ne committeret ut,' reminisceretur veteris incommodi populi Romani,' &amp;c. 15. c 11. iniqua condicio, 'an unjust proposal,' whether 'dicio' comes from ' do' or from 'dico.' 18. delectus habere; Caesar's idea in omitting conjunctions here is to place the contradictories as closely as possible to one another, so that they may show their own deformity 19. peracto consulatu Caesaris, ' if he stayed till the end of B.c 48.' 22. polliceri; on the derivation of this word, see Bell. Gall. 1. 42, note 3, and 1.18, note 3. 23. Arretium. M. Antonius was sent to Arezzo, because this lay on the direct road from Ariminum to Rome, through Etruria. 25. Pesaro and Fauo, were on the Flaminian Way. Auximum (Osimo) and Ancona defended the coast road. It must be remembered that Pompeius was at Teanum ready to advance northward; and it could not be known beforehand on which line he would advance. 27. c. 12. Iguvium...
