Description

Explore the complex relationship between legend and historical record in early Rome with this scholarly volume from Brill. Part of the Historiography of Rome and Its Empire series, this collection examines the writings of ancient historians such as Livy and Dionysius of Halicarnassus. The text analyzes sensational narratives, including the story of the she-wolf and the twins, the conception of Servius Tullius, and the Dioscuri at Lake Regillus. By investigating these accounts, the essays look at how rhetorical invention, aetiologies, and folktales shaped ancient perspectives. This work provides an academic look at the porous boundaries and hybrid borrowings between myth, history, and historiography in the Roman tradition.
