Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an in-depth exploration of the legendary origins and the earliest centuries of Rome. It draws on archaeological, literary, and epigraphic evidence, with particular attention to traditions recorded in the works of Roman historians from the late Republic and early Empire, such as Livy and Dionysius of Halicarnassus. The author argues that these traditions contain a kernel of historical truth, and that by careful analysis, we can reconstruct a plausible account of Rome's foundation and early development. The book places this history within the broader context of the rise of civilization in Italy, and the development of Etruscan and Greek culture. It explores the social, political, and religious institutions of early Rome, and discusses the impact of Rome's military conquests on its development. This book offers a fresh perspective on the origins of Rome, and challenges many of the traditional assumptions about this period. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Rome, or in the development of civilization in the Mediterranean region. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
