Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of Roman history as portrayed by the 'Annales Maximi', the most authoritative historical accounts of ancient Rome. The 'Annales' were a compilation of yearly records meticulously maintained by the College of Pontiffs, the chief religious body in Rome. These records, initially intended to provide a chronological framework for religious observances and notable events, evolved into a comprehensive historical narrative covering the city's foundation to the middle of the first century BCE. The author delves into the nature of these records, examining their compilation, transmission, and influence on subsequent Roman historiography. Through a detailed analysis of the fragments and testimonies that have survived, the book sheds light on the development of Roman historical writing and the role of the 'Annales Maximi' in shaping the collective memory and identity of the Roman people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
