Description

With this classic text, Sir Ronald Syme became the first historian of the 20th century to place Sallust - whom Tacitus called the most brilliant Roman historian - in his social, political and literary context. Scholars had considered Sallust to be a mere political hack or pamphleteer, but Syme's text makes important connections between the politics of the Republic and the literary achievement of the author to show Sallust as a historian unbiased by partisanship. In his foreword, Ronald Mellor delivers a thorough biographical essays of Sir Ronald Syme. He both places the book in the context of Syme's other works and details the progression of Sallustian studies since and as a result of Syme's work.
