«La guerre des Gaules» is an edition with excerpts from Julius Caesar's historical chronicle, published by Larousse in paperback (144 pages, in French).
The collected passages narrate the conquest campaign of Gaul between 58 and 51 BC, with episodes such as Gergovia and Alesia and figures like Vercingetorix. Caesar combines the account of military operations and sieges with the description of the Gallic peoples and their customs, offering a chronicle that is both personal testimony and historical document.
This volume corresponds to number 245 of the Petits Classiques Larousse collection and includes a translation by Théophile Baudement and commentaries by François Martin.
It is intended for high school students, as it is cited in the programs for languages and cultures of Antiquity.
Gaius Julius Caesar was a Roman general, statesman, and author who was the dictator of the Roman Republic almost continuously from 49 BC until his assassination in 44 BC. A member of the First Triumvirate, he led the Roman armies through the Gallic Wars and defeated his political rival Pompey in Caesar's civil war. He consolidated power and proclaimed himself dictator for life in 44 BC, helping create the political conditions that led to the collapse of the Roman Republic and the emergence of the Roman Empire. For his role in these events, he is regarded as one of history’s most influential figures.
