About this title

Synopsis

The Historians of Ancient Rome

is the most comprehensive collection of ancient sources for Roman history available in English. Ronald Mellor introduces Roman historical writing, then traces the history of Rome over more than a thousand years, using extensive passages from ten Greek and Roman historians--from Livy's account of the city's foundation by Romulus to the great defeat at Adrianople, by Ammianus Marcellinus. Selections include classic texts by such figures as Caesar, Suetonius, and Tacitus, and contains Sallust's Catiline, Suetonius' Life of Caligula, and Augustus' Autobiography in their entirety.

About the Author
