This edition presents Sallust's "De conjuratione Catilinae liber" (The Conspiracy of Catiline) and "De bello Jugurthino liber" (The Jugurthine War) in their original Latin. Sallust, a prominent Roman historian of the 1st century BC, offers invaluable insights into the political intrigues and military conflicts that shaped the late Roman Republic. "The Conspiracy of Catiline" details the infamous plot against the Roman state, while "The Jugurthine War" recounts Rome's struggle in Numidia. This edition, prepared with an introduction and notes, is designed for students and scholars seeking a deeper understanding of Sallust's work and the historical context in which it was written. Sallust's vivid prose and keen observations continue to resonate, making these texts essential for anyone interested in Roman history and Latin literature.
