A definitive book in its field, this second edition is a must read. Completely rewritten and updated to include the further discoveries of the last two decades, it challenges traditional views of Sulla as a tyrant and harsh military dictator and instead delivers a compellingly complex portrait of a man obsessed with the belief that he was blessed with divine favour. Written by a leading authority on the classical world, this lively and entertaining book transports us through Sulla's rise from poverty and obscurity to his dictatorship of Rome, highlighting his dedication and achievements in better ordering the Republic before his decline a generation later. 606 $aStatesmen$zRome$vBiography 607 $aRome$xHistory$yRepublic, 265-30 B.C 615 0$aStatesmen 676 $a937/.05/092 676 $aB 686 $a15.52$2bcl 700 $aKeaveney$b Arthur$0295424 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910955182103321 996 $aSulla$9731474 997 $aUNINA
