Piso's centrality to many important historical and historiographical issues of the regal period, early republic, and middle republic and the relative abundance of his fragments and testimonia on his life make the work wide ranging in its scope. In a comprehensive and contextual manner, the author treats his subjects in the broader contexts of Roman history and the annalistic tradition.Contents: List of Abbreviations; Preface and Acknowledgements; Piso's Family and Political Career; Prolegomena to the History; Piso's First Book, The Regal Period; Piso's Second and Third Books, The Early Republic; Piso's Later Books, The Middle Republic; Appendix, Testimonia and Fragments; Bibliography; Index., 2, Biographies & Memoirs, 2327, Arts & Literature, 2365, Ethnic & National, 300960, Family & Childhood, 2376, Historical, 2396, Leaders & Notable People, 3048891, Memoirs, 916928, People, A-Z, 2419, Professionals & Academics, 2429, Reference & Collections, 1043842, Regional Canada, 2430, Regional U.S., 2437, Specific Groups, 2446, Sports & Outdoors, 300961, Travel, 11314, True Accounts, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 4883, Rome, 4873, Ancient, 9, History, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 4989, Reference, 4987, Historical Study, 9, History, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 684268011, Ancient, 468230, History, 468206, Humanities, 465600, New & Used Textbooks, 2349030011, Specialty Boutique, 283155, Books<
