Description
Sallust is the earliest Roman historian of whom
complete works survive, a senator of the Roman
Republic and younger contemporary of Cicero,
Pompey and Julius Caesar. His Catilineâs War
tells of the conspiracy in 63 bc led by L.
Sergius Catilina, who plotted to assassinate
numerous senators and take control of the
government, but was thwarted by Cicero.
Sallustâs vivid account of Roman public life
shows a Republic in decline, prey to moral
corruption and internal strife. In The Jugurthine
War he describes Romeâs fight in Africa against
the king of the Numidians from 111 to 105 bc, and
provides a damning picture of the Roman
aristocracy. Also included in this volume are the
major surviving extracts from Sallustâs now
fragmentary Histories, depicting Rome after the
death of the dictator Sulla.For more than seventy
