Ray’s Reviews > The Assassination of Julius Caesar: A People's History of Ancient Rome > Status Update

I like this book but the Caesar wank is just too much.

It's Caesar time!

Parenti is just dunking some of these historians and I'm honestly here for all of it.

An interesting perspective on the assassination of Julius Caesar and a harrowing critique of the modern popular conception of Rome. It also demonstrates the shocking bias of past historians who have their own class-motivated interests in writing history. I might check the validity of Parenti's claims because it's really provocative. But so far it's a great read, kept me up all night.
