Description

Explore the complex history of one of Rome's most influential figures with Aemilius Paullus: Conqueror of Greece. Published by Routledge, this work investigates the man responsible for bringing Greece into the expanding Roman Republic. While many historical accounts present Paullus as a man of pure virtue and philhellenic views, this text seeks to provide a more accurate and balanced view of his actual personality and political actions. This study moves beyond simplified historical images by examining the primary sources of the era. By analyzing the writings of Livy, Plutarch, and Polybius, the book reconstructs the life of the soldier and politician. It is particularly notable for its use of Polybius, who worked under the direct patronage of Paullus. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of the Polybian concepts of the statesman and the conqueror through this scholarly examination of the events that shaped the ancient world.
