Translated from the French by Antony Melville, closely following the first edition, and with annotations to make the text more accessible. Introduction by Alastair Brotchie. Collected Works of Alfred Jarry Volume III.
"Caesar Antichrist was Jarry's second book... The text, partly based on the apocalyptic events of the Book of Revelations, embodies all of Jarry's future themes, from Symbolism and the anti-world parallel to this one, which is the domain of Jarry's famous science of Pataphysics, to Ubu himself. One act of the play is an early version of Ubu Rex."
