Publisher's Synopsis
C. Sallustii Crispi Catilina, Seu Bellum Catilinarium, est liber historicus qui de coniuratione Lucii Sergii Catilinae in Romanis rebus publicis agit. Sallustius, qui ipse fuit senator Romanus, scribit de Catilinae coniuratione et eius tentationibus ad urbem Romam occupandam et senatum interficiendum. Liber continet orationes Catilinae et Ciceronis, qui contra coniurationem et Catilinam ipsam pugnavit. Sallustius describit etiam mores et vitia nobilium Romanorum, quae, ut opinatur, causae fuerunt coniurationis. Liber est scriptus stilo conciso et sententiis gravibus, qui Sallustium inter optimos scriptores Latinos ponit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
