Sobre este artículo
4to. Engraved frontispiece portrait of the author, 18 engraved illustrations, maps and tables. Contemporary mottled calf, gilt spines; internally perfect.
First edition of this comprehensive study of the Roman Republic based on the contemporary writings of Sallust. In addition to a complete translation of his Historia, the author examined maps, archaeological sites, and ancient artifacts to contextualize his recension with accurate data. De Brosses, a writer and enemy of Voltaire, dedicated the final thirty years of his life to this massive project; although incomplete when he died, the result is a monumental exploration of seven hundred years of European history much prized by the scholarly community.
