This unique collaboration between a classicist and physicist at the
University of Illinois at Chicago is the first work to combine the
evidence from both China and Rome for the spectacular daylight
comet of 44 BC, perhaps the most famous comet in antiquity. This
investigation, which also examines allusions to this comet in
astrological literature from later antiquity, sheds new light on
the significance of the comet as a powerful symbol in the political
propaganda that launched Augustus' career.
