Inhaltsangabe

Bellum Catilinae, also known as The War of Catiline, is a historical account written by the Roman historian Sallust in 40 BC. The book chronicles the events leading up to the conspiracy of Catiline, a Roman senator who attempted to overthrow the government in 63 BC. Sallust describes the political and social climate of Rome at the time, including the corruption and greed of the ruling class, which he believed contributed to the rise of Catiline's rebellion. The book also includes speeches given by key figures in the conflict, such as Cicero, who was instrumental in exposing the conspiracy and thwarting the rebellion. Bellum Catilinae is considered a primary source for the study of Roman history and politics, and is valued for its vivid portrayal of the characters and events of the time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
