Sommario/riassunto |
|
Polybius was a Greek statesman and political prisoner of Rome in the second century B.C.E. His Histories provide the earliest continuous narrative of the rise of the Roman Empire. In this original study informed by recent work in cultural studies and on ethnicity, Craige Champion demonstrates that Polybius's work performs a literary and political balancing act of heretofore unappreciated subtlety and interest. |
