Cassius Dio’s Forgotten History of Early Rome brings together ten studies on the literary, historiographical, rhetorical, and generic and textual dimensions of the least explored section of Dio’s enormous history of Rome: Books 1-21.
"While it is essential reading, and not merely for those who study Dio’s early books, this volume also makes a strong case for how foundational these books are to anyone who works on Dio. Like a good Aristotelian Description, the Roman History’s beginning, middle, and end compose a unity. Beyond the volume’s content, which is excellently organized in its sequence of chapters, its front and end matter are equally splendid. The volume opens with brief and helpful introductions to the contributors and their scholarly profiles, and it concludes with a useful and well-organized index of names and key terms. Each chapter includes its own bibliography, rather than at the end of the volume. The physical book itself is contained within a glossy, durable hardcover fittingly graced by the reverse of a Republican-era coin depicting the founding twins suckled by the she-wolf. " – Jeremy J. Swist, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2019
