Ennius' Annales, which is preserved only in fragments, was hugely
influential on Roman literature and culture. This book explores the
genesis, in the ancient sources for Ennius' epic and in modern
scholarship, of the accounts of the Annales with which we operate
today. A series of appendices detail each source's contribution to
our record of the poem, and are used to consider how the interests
and working methods of the principal sources shape the modern view
of the poem and to re-examine the limits imposed and the
possibilities offered by this ancient evidence. Dr Elliott
challenges standard views of the poem, such as its use of time and
the disposition of the gods within it. She argues that the manifest
impact of the Annales on the collective Roman psyche results from
its innovative promotion of a vision of Rome as the primary focus
of the cosmos in all its aspects.
