Delphi Complete Works of Florus (Illustrated) - ebook
Florus, the author of ‘Epitome of Roman History’, was reportedly born in Africa and lived in Rome during Hadrian’s time. He wrote in a concise and pointed rhetorical style, providing a summary of Roman history and wars in two books in order to show the greatness and decline of Roman morals, from the Founding of Rome to Augustus’ reign. A collection of short poems ascribed to a ‘Florus’ also survives from antiquity, though whether it was the same person as the ‘Epitome’ remains uncertain. Both texts are provided in this edition of ‘Florus’. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Latin texts. This comprehensive eBook presents Florus’ complete extant works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
