Polybius' Histories - Oxford Approaches to Classical Literature
McGing, Brian C. (Regius Professor of Greek, Regius Professor of Greek, Trinity College Dublin)
The Histories of the second-century B. C. author Polybius chronicles one of the most exciting, and important, developments in the ancient world-the transformation of Rome from an Italian peninsular state into the first, and only, pan-Mediterranean super-power there has ever been. This volume provides an accessible introduction to this great work, of which forty books survive (of which only the first five are preserved in full) covering the period 264-146B. C.
