Classicist Mary Beard has become a popular TV figure the last years but I’ve been following her work for quite a while.

You don’t have to be Italian, understand the Roman language or even be a history buff to enjoy her programs: “Julius Caesar Revealed” (2020), her latest DVD, is another fine contribution on the old Romans.

She shows how Caesar lives on in today’s world in all sorts of ways: Caesarean sections and the month July, the result of the 365-day calendar he introduced, are called after him etc.

He was the first politician with a combover - take that, Donald! And do you know what “crossing the Rubicon” means? If teenage girls who start dating do that today, they need to know that Caesar did it in 49 BC and the stakes were much higher!
