- This book offers a distinctive perspective on the late Roman republic. It focuses on often-overlooked connections between the micro and the macro levels, identified as crucial factors in recent research on civil wars. It sets internecine violence and destruction against evidence of building and artistic consumption, sponsored by elites all over central Italy. Through a deliberately cross-generational view, it recalibrates traditional chronological narratives, offering a more structural, socio-economic and cultural reading. It draws upon a wide range of archaeological and literary evidence for socio-economic and cultural conditions, bringing the reader closer to the communities and individuals of this turbulent period.

- This book in German offers a distinctive perspective on the late Roman republic. It focuses on often-overlooked connections between the micro and the macro levels, identified as crucial factors in recent research on civil wars. It sets internecine violence and destruction against evidence of building and artistic consumption, sponsored by elites throughout central Italy. Through a cross-generational view, it recalibrates traditional chronological narratives, offering a more structural, socio-economic and cultural reading. It draws upon a wide range of archaeological and literary evidence for socio-economic and cultural conditions, bringing the reader closer to the communities and individuals of this turbulent period.
