Tras las huellas de César en Hispania

Have you ever wondered if he was really here? Did you know that the echoes of his footsteps still resonate in Spain? Why do we know so much about his exploits in Gaul, yet the Spanish mark on his legend remains in the shadows of anecdote? Few figures have been so indelibly imprinted on our collective memory as Gaius Julius Caesar, the politician and general who ended the Roman Republic and whose name became synonymous with absolute power in many languages. Phrases such as Iacta alea est or Veni, vidi, vici and episodes such as the crossing of the Rubicon River or the Ides of March are universally known, but it is surprising that, sadly, Caesar's relationship with ancient Hispania is not so well known in Spain. From his arrival in Corduba in 69 BCE as a young quaestor of Hispania Ulterior, and later as governor, triumvir, and dictator, Caesar spent four intense periods in Spain, which proved decisive in his career and in the course of the history of Rome and the ancient world. This book is an account of the vicissitudes that Caesar experienced on our soil through the traces he left behind, still visible to those who wish to follow them, driven by curiosity, admiration for the past, or love for the heritage we share. A fascinating journey in search of the Caesar who was forged in Hispania.
