The Pharsalia: Dramatic Episodes of the Civil Wars is a Roman epic
poem. The narrative is about the civil war between Julius Caesar
and the Roman Senate led by Pompey the Great. The title Pharsalia
refers to the Battle of Pharsalus in 48BC, in northern Greece,
although the poem was probably not titled this originally. Caesar
decisively defeated Pompey in Pharsalus. This poem is considered to
be the best epic poem of the Silver Age of Latin literature. It was
originally written in Latin, in approximately A.D. 61-65, by the
Roman poet Lucan, and probably left unfinished upon his death in
A.D. 65. This edition contains line numbers and footnotes.
