An enlivening and sophisticated analysis of the pervasive use of historical myth in some of the greatest writers of the Late Republic and Augustan periods - from Cicero and Livy to Virgil, Propertius, and Ovid. The book challenges both historians and scholars of Latin literature with a provocative new interpretation of the whole notion of historical truth, Augustan ideology, and the connections between myth, belief, and historical context.
