About this edition

A complete edition of the surviving works of Gaius Julius Caesar (100–44 BC), presented in the original Latin.

This is the complete public-domain Latin text in the language it was written — not a translation. What Hermitsh Press adds is the editorial apparatus around it: the glossary, cross-references, and notes.

What's here

Caesar's surviving works — the Gallic War and the Civil War — translated from the Latin and presented in order. Each carries a headnote, an optional Latin-parallel toggle, and an apparatus of named-entity glossary and cross-references (the Gallic War alone names hundreds of tribes, places, and officers).

The original Latin

These pages present Gaius Julius Caesar's words in the Latin they were written in, drawn from open scholarly sources. The text is reproduced unaltered — this edition is the original, not one of our translations. Only the glossary, cross-references, and notes are Hermitsh Press's editorial apparatus.

How to use this

Read any work straight through, or follow the glossary and cross-reference links to trace a name or place across the whole corpus. Every section is individually linkable, so any passage can be cited and shared.

Citation and reuse
