abstract

The story of Gaius Cornelius Gallus matures against the backdrop of the profound transformation that characterised the 1st century BC. A leading intellectual, an expression of the newly integrated western elites, a successful politician and military man, first placed at the head of Egypt as prefect and finally the subject of a public prosecution that cost him his life, Gallus represents an effective key to understanding this historical passage, investigated, through an interdisciplinary approach, from the dual perspective of the res publica becoming a principality and Egypt becoming Roman territory.
