The sources, presented in translation, cover the Roman conquest of Italy, the mechanisms used by Rome to govern Italy and the post-conquest process of Romanization.

Brief explanatory notes are given and each chapter has an introduction in which the nature of the source material is discussed, together with the major questions raised by that particular aspect of the subject.

The history of the Greek cities of Italy during the period of Roman conquest and under Roman rule form a fascinating case study of the processes of Roman expansion and assimilation and of Greek reactions to the presence of Rome. This book reassesses the role of Magna Graecia in Roman Italy and illuminates the mechanisms of Roman control and the process of acculturation. Specifically it explores the role of the Greek cities of Italy as cultural mediators between the Greek and Roman worlds. It is the first full length treatment of the region as a whole in English for over thirty years.

The first of the Roman Conquests series, this volume will look at how Rome went from just another Latin town under Etruscan rule, to a free republic that gradually conquered or dominated all her Italian neighbours. With hindsight we know that Rome, which won its independence from the Etruscan kings around 510 BC, went on to conquer the greatest empire yet seen, yet it took three hundred years just to become master of all the peninsula. This involved desperate struggles for survival against their Italian neighbours - Etruscans, Latins, Samnites, Umbrians, Lucanians, the Greek colonies in the south and the ferocious Celts of northern Italy - plus invading armies from further abroad - those of Pyrrhus of Epirus and then the Carthaginian genius, Hannibal. Rome's survival, let alone her eventual greatness, was never a foregone conclusion while such formidable enemies were to be found so close to home. Other Books in the series: - Spain (Paul McDonnell Staff); Greece and Macedon (Philip Matyszak); North Africa (Nic Fields); Asia Minor and Syria (Richard Evans) Gaul; Germany; Britain; The Danube Provinces; The Eastern Frontier AUTHOR: Ross Cowan studied classics at the University of Glasgow, where he also wrote his doctoral thesis on elite units of the Roman Imperial Army. He is the author of books about the Imperial legions and Roman battle tactics, and most recently of For the Glory of Rome, a study of the warrior spirit and ethos of the Roman soldier. SELLING POINTS: * First in an exciting new series detailing Rome's march to imperial glory * Details the series of vicious wars in which the young Roman republic fought first for survival, and then for domination of the whole of Italy. * Shows how the Roman way of warfare adapted to new enemies and overcame them all. * Detailed descriptions of battles against fearsome foes such as the Celts, Samnites, Pyrrhus of Epirus and Hannibal.

From the earliest times, successive waves of foreign invaders have left their mark on Italy. Beginning with Germanic invasions that undermined the Roman Empire and culminating with the establishment of the modern nation, Girolamo Arnaldi explores the dynamic exchange between outsider and âeoenative,âe liberally illustrated with interpretations of the foreigners drawn from a range of sources. A despairing Saint Jerome wrote, of the Sack of Rome by the Visigoths in 410, âeoeMy sobs stop me from dictating these words. Behold, the city that conquered the world has been conquered in its turn.âe Other Christian authors, however, concluded that the sinning Romans had drawn the wrath of God upon them. Arnaldi traces the rise of Christianity, which in the transition from Roman to barbarian rule would provide a social bond that endured through centuries of foreign domination. Incursions cemented the separation between north and south: the Frankish conquerors held sway north of Rome, while the Normans settled in the south. In the ninth century, Sicily entered the orbit of the Muslim world when Arab and Berber forces invaded. During the Renaissance, flourishing cities were ravaged by foreign armiesâe"first the French, who during the siege of Naples introduced an epidemic of syphilis, then the Spanish, whose control preserved the countryâe(tm)s religious unity during the Counter-Reformation but also ensured that Italy would lag behind during the Enlightenment. Accessible and entertaining, this outside-in history of Italy is a telling reminder of the many interwoven strands that make up the fabric of modern Europe.
