Synopsis
The History of Rome Book II, written by Theodor Mommsen, is a comprehensive account of the early Roman Republic. The book covers the period from the end of the Roman monarchy in 509 BC to the beginning of the First Punic War in 264 BC. Mommsen provides a detailed analysis of the political, social, and economic developments that took place during this time, including the establishment of the Roman Republic, the growth of the Roman army, and the expansion of Roman territory. The book also includes a discussion of the major figures of the period, including the consuls, the tribunes of the plebs, and the patricians. Mommsen's work is known for its meticulous research and attention to detail, and The History of Rome Book II is no exception. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of Rome or the development of Western civilization.But the subjugation, with which the coalition of the Etruscan and Carthaginian nations had threatened both Greeks and Italians, was fortunately averted by the combination of peoples drawn towards each other by family affinity as well as by common peril. The Etruscan army, which after the fall of Rome had penetrated into Latium, had its victorious career checked in the first instance before the walls of Aricia by the well-timed intervention of the Cumaeans who had hastened to the succour of the Aricines (248).This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
