4405321The Fall of the Roman Republichttps://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-fall-of-the-roman-republic-9780192555656/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4107050/image.jpg?v=638443265454330000174174MXNOUP OxfordInStock/Ebooks/<p>That was how things stood in the city at the time. With no one in charge, murders were taking place almost every day and the elections could not be held. Books 36-40 of the Roman History by Cassius Dio (born ca. 163 CE), covers 69-50 BCE, the last twenty years before the Roman Republic collapsed in a long series of civil wars, leading to the monarchy of the emperors. Although Dios history was written over 250 years later, it provides the fullest surviving account of this crucial period in Roman history and is a key source of information on many of the chief developments. Dio fashions his account of these years to foreshadow the coming civil war, exposing the violence and corruption of the political life of the time, and portraying the gradual eclipse of the great general Pompey by his younger rival Caesar. Robin Waterfields lively and up-to-date translation is accompanied by an introduction by John Rich, which sets Dios work in its context and explores both literary and historical features of the text, and his portraits of major characters such as Pompey, Cicero, and Caesar. This edition also includes full explanatory notes, a glossary, and maps of Central Rome, Gaul, and the East. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford Worlds Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxfords commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.</p>...4525822The Fall of the Roman Republic174174https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-fall-of-the-roman-republic-9780192555656/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4107050/image.jpg?v=638443265454330000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249780192555656_W3siaWQiOiJiMTViNGYzNi03NjEwLTRlMjYtOGIwZS1lMDBkN2I1MWE0NzUiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjE3NCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjAsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6MTc0LCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiV2hvbGVzYWxlIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNS0wNy0wMVQwMDowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfV0=9780192555656_<p>That was how things stood in the city at the time.
