With their antiquity saga “Murena,” Dufaux and Delaby revived the historical fiction branch of comic books. They created a vivid picture of a Rome that is lively, unstable, and most of all, authentic. All that was missing for their characters’ return to their origins was their native language: Latin. But thanks to Claude Aziza (New Sorbonne University, Paris III) and Cathy Rousset (Grand Parc College, Condorcet, Bordeaux University III), it’s finally happened! This special volume is also enriched with thorough didactic notes, explaining the context of the series, namely the troubled period of Claudius and Nero’s reign.
