Wilder also resurrects the controversial figures surrounding Caesar - Cleopatra, Catullus, Cicero, and others. In this inventive narrative, the Caesar of history becomes Caesar the human being.
Thornton Wilder called it "a fantasia on certain events and persons of the last days of the Roman republic." Through vividly imagined letters and documents, Wilder brings to life a dramatic period of world history and one of history's most magnetic, elusive personalities. The Ides of March, first published in 1948, is a brilliant epistolary novel set in Julius Caesar's Rome. Drawing on such unique sources as Thornton Wilder's unpublished letters, journals, and selections from the extensive annotations Wilder made years later in the margins of the book, Tappan Wilder's Afterword adds a special dimension to the reissue of this internationally acclaimed novel.
