For the history specialists of his own and later Roman periods, Pompey fit the figure of speech of the incredible man who attained uncommon triumphs through his own particular deliberations, yet tumbled from force and was, at last, killed through injustice.
He was a legend of the Republic, who appeared to be once to hold the Roman world in his palm, just to be brought low by his own particular misguided thinking and Caesar. Pompey was glorified as a deplorable saint practically promptly after Pharsalus and his homicide. Plutarch depicted him as a Roman Alexander the Great, immaculate of heart and psyche, pulverized by the negative desire of those around him. This depiction of him made due into the Renaissance and Baroque periods, for instance in Corneille's play The Death of Pompey (1642).
Pompey has showed up as a character in a few present day books, plays, movies, and other media.
Theater, Film and Television
A showy depiction was John Masefield's play The Tragedy of Pompey the Great (1910).
In the opening scene of King of Kings (1961 film), he is played by performing artist Conrado San Martin.
In the TV arrangement Xena: Warrior Princess, he is depicted by performing artist Jeremy Callaghan.
Chris Noth depicts Pompey in the 2002 miniseries Julius Caesar.
He shows up as a significant character in the first season of the HBO arrangement Rome, in which he is depicted by Kenneth Cranham.
In 2006 he was played by John Shrapnel in the BBC docu-dramatization Ancient Rome: The Rise and Fall of an Empire.
In the TV arrangement Spartacus: War of the Damned, he is depicted by performer Joel Tobeck.
Writing
In Colleen Mccullough's Masters of Rome arrangement of authentic books, Pompey's energetic adventures are delineated in Fortune's Favorites, the creation of the First Triumvirate and his marriage to Julia is a huge part of Caesar's Women and his loss of Julia, the disintegration of the First Triumvirate, his later political vocation, the common war in the middle of him and Caesar and his inevitable annihilation and his selling out and kill in Egypt are by and large in Caesar.
In funnies, he shows up as Julius Caesar's enemy all through The Adventures of Alix arrangement.
Pompey is a repeating character in the Roma Sub Rosa arrangement of books by Steven Saylor, depicting his part in the Civil War with Caesar. His last appearance is in Saylor's novel The Judgment of Caesar, graphically portraying his homicide by Ptolemy in Egypt.
Pompey additionally seems as often as possible in the SPQR arrangement by John Maddox Roberts, described by Senator Decius Metellus, an anecdotal nephew of Caecilius Metellus Pius. Decius loathes Pompey as a greatness seeker and credit-grabber, while recognizing that he is a political dolt who was inevitably cleared up into the optimates quarrel with Caesar.
