Klappentext zu „Rethinking Catiline Conspiracy in Antiquity “
My book will reconsider the failed attempt by a number of Roman citizens to gain power in Rome in 63 B.C., commonly labeled "The Conspiracy of Catiline." Two Roman authors, M. Tullius Cicero and C. Sallustius Crispus, were eyewitnesses to the events occurring that year and both wrote lengthy accounts about the discovery and suppression of the affair and its participants, who were planning to gain power in Rome through violent means. The participants planned murder and arson inside of Rome and threatened the city with an army in northern Etruria. Our sources tend to ascribe the leadership of these hostile activities to L. Sergius Catilina, presented as a debauched, and indebted, scion of a noble family. However, our sources discuss many other Roman citizens who participated with the affair
