发明历史：《高卢战记》中的史实与欺骗
(germany) Marcus Sauer
From 58 BC to 50 BC, Caesar launched a brutal war against Gaul. The main purpose of this war was to achieve great success, but his actions were strongly opposed by the Senate. Under pressure, Caesar, who was good at winning over people's hearts, wrote "Gaul Wars". This literary treasure that has been passed down for two thousand years and that European high school students loved and feared was mainly an elaborate apology to the Roman public. Why can Caesar manipulate readers? Where in the book does it avoid reality and gloss over reality, and where does it make subtle remarks and covertly praise or criticize? Classical literature professor Sauer compared historical facts and deeply analyzed how Caesar's genre selection, perspective transformation, and rhetorical skills cleverly and secretly legitimized his actions, beautified his image, and sublimated his military achievements, thereby winning the support of ancient and modern readers.
