Sommario/riassunto |

This is a collection of studies on ancient (especially Latin) poetry and historiography, concentrating especially on the impact of rhetoric on both genres, and on the importance of considering the literature to illuminate the historical Roman context and the historical context to illuminate the literature. It takes the form of a tribute to Tony Woodman, Gildersleeve Professor of Classics at the University of Virginia, for whom twenty-one scholars have contributed essays reflectingthe interests and approaches that have typified Woodman's own work. The authors that he has continuously illuminate |

The book concludes with postulates of a broader theory of federalism and recommendations addressed to Congress to reinvigorate the federal |
