This book presents a radical new interpretation of Roman expansion
in Italy during the fourth and third centuries BCE. Nicola
Terrenato argues that the process was accomplished by means of a
grand bargain that was negotiated between the landed elites of
central and southern Italy, while military conquest played a much
smaller role than is usually envisaged. Deploying archaeological,
epigraphic, and historical evidence, he paints a picture of the
family interactions that tied together both Roman and non-Roman
aristocrats and that resulted in their pooling power and resources
for the creation of a new political entity. The book is written in
accessible language, without technical terms or quotations in
Latin, and is heavily illustrated.
