With this classic book, Sir Ronald Syme became the first historian
of the twentieth century to place Sallust--whom Tacitus called the
most brilliant Roman historian--in his social, political, and
literary context. Scholars had considered Sallust to be a mere
political hack or pamphleteer, but Syme's text makes important
connections between the politics of the Republic and the literary
achievement of the author to show Sallust as a historian unbiased
by partisanship. In a new foreword, Ronald Mellor delivers one of
the most thorough biographical essays of Sir Ronald Syme in
English. He both places the book in the context of Syme's other
works and details the progression of Sallustian studies since and
as a result of Syme's work.
