商品簡介
Lange revises his 2008 Ph.D. dissertation in ancient history at the University of Nottingham exploring the interplay between Octavian/Augustus, the Triumvirate he was part of, the Battle of Actium, the role ascribed to the god Apollo in the battle, and how the propaganda and ideology regarding the events contributed to the rise of Augustus as sole emperor. He covers the triumvirate, approach to war, decisive conflicts, onsite commemorations of the Battle of Actium, waiting for Caesar, and the political settlement of 28-27 BC after everyone had returned from the war.
