Abstract

the aim of this essay is to analyse the use of the legacy of the Ancient World for political and social purposes. We will focus on the manipulation of Espartaco and his famous rebellion, to criticise the political situation in America during the 50s. We will also show the historical mistakes that appear in the film and their motivations.
