Gilles Sauron
Gilles Sauron is a distinguished French historian and professor emeritus of Roman archaeology at Sorbonne University. He is renowned for his scholarly work on the ideological conquests of power during ancient Rome, particularly focusing on the reign of Emperor Augustus. His recent publication, "Auguste. L’emprise des signes," explores the intricate relationship between architecture, propaganda, and the formation of imperial mythology during Augustus's rule. Through his research, Sauron analyzes how architectural remnants and public spectacles served as tools for spreading Augustus's narrative, thereby shaping the perception of his authority and legacy in a largely illiterate society.
