This book investigates Dionysius of Halicarnassus’ description of Rome’s ‘founders’ and situates Dionysius’ historical work in the cultural and political contexts of Augustan Rome. Beatrice Poletti examines Dionysius’ methods and engagement with his sources to illustrate the significance of his work in his contemporary intellectual milieu.
