The author of the Commentaries on the Gallic War (consisting of 8 books) is traditionally known by the name of Julius Caesar. We know, for example, that the author of Book VIII of the Bellum gallicum is Aulus Hirtius, one of Caesar’s closest collaborators. As the Caesarian corpus as a whole (The Gallic War, The Civil War, The Spanish War, The African War and The Alexandrian War), doubts and diverse opinions about it have been expressed since antiquity, notably by Asinius Pollio, who accused the politician of omissions and inaccuracies.The Commentarii, likely written between late October and late December in 51 BC, are accounts of Caesar’s military campaigns. They discuss in great detail Gaul’s independent era. Were the flagrant contradictions found in Caesar’s work made intentionally or by mistake? Michel Rambaud’s research shows that the conqueror’s testimony could not always be trusted. The Gallic War is a work of propaganda, written in what we would consider today a military and political journalistic style.
