| Description: |
Marius' rise to pre-eminence, his contribution to the period's legislation and his involvement with other politicians are all traced here. His participation in republican politics, it is argued, became an example to other ambitious politicians, a dangerous precedent. |
| Synopsis: |
Though he may not have realised it, Gaius Marius caused through his political ambition the beginnings of the fall of the Roman Republic. Presenting this view, Evans traces here Marius' rise to pre-eminence, his contribution to legislation and his involvement with other politicians. It was other politicians, this work argues, that emulated or even exceeded a dangerous precedent Marius had set. |
