Synopsis
The Cambridge Companion to the Roman Republic examines all aspects of Roman history and civilization from 509 to 49 B.C. The key development of the republican period was Rome's rise from a small city to a wealthy metropolis, which served as the international capital of an extensive Mediterranean empire. These centuries produced a classic republican political culture, closely associated with the growth of a world empire. They also witnessed the slow disintegration of republican government under the relentless and combined pressure of external commitments, growing internal dissension, and the boundless ambition of successful military leaders. In the second edition of this Companion volume, distinguished European, Canadian, and American scholars present a variety of lively current approaches to understanding the political, military, and social aspects of Roman history, as well as its literary and visual culture. The second edition includes a new introduction, three new chapters on population, slavery, and the rise of empire, and updated bibliographies and maps., The Cambridge Companion to the Roman Republic examines all aspects of Roman history and civilization from 509 to 49 BC.

    This seller couldn't have been better! She answered my questions promptly, sent me photos I requested and when the book arrived, on time, not only was it in excellent condition, but she had packaged it better than any item I can ever remember receiving in my many years of purchasing on Ebay! She also worked with me wonderfully on the price of the book that I purchased and there is not enough good that I can say about this seller! Thank you and please feel totally positive about any purchase! :-)

    A brand new sealed CD box set was purchased and shipped on 3-13 and delivered by USPS Media Mail on 3-18. Item received was as described and pictured in the listing and was professionally packed for protection. Set was placed in a plastic sleeve to protect shrinkwrap, then sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard, then wrapped in large bubblewrap before being secured in a padded envelope. The care in packing, seller's acceptance of offer, and fast shipping made for an excellent purchase.
