Descrizione

Book has very light rubbing to textblock else fine. DJ has minor shelfwear and tiny stain. ; The history of early republican Rome was marked by a long series of social and political struggles between the patrician elite and the plebeians (often called the 'Conflict of the Orders'). Its results helped Rome achieve the internal integration needed to conquer and rule the Mediterranean world. Despite its fundamental significance, this process is difficult to understand because contemporaneous evidence is scarce and later literary sources present a gravely deformed picture. In Social Struggles in Archaic Rome, experts from both sides of the Atlantic illuminate the history of these social conflicts-examining their causes and nature; analysing a wide range of social, economic, legal, religious, military, and political aspects; and considering the reliability of the historical sources. Constributions by T. J. Cornell, R. Develin, W. Eder, J. Linderski, R. E. Mitchell, A. Momigliano, K. A. Raaflaub, J. - C. Richard, M. Toher, and J. Von Ungern-Sternberg. ; 489 pages
