The Founding Narrative of Rome ("classics and Interpretations" No. 54)
About This Novel
"Rome's Founding Narrative" is the 54th issue of "Classics and Interpretation". It mainly focuses on the different narrative perspectives of historians and literati on the historical event of the founding of Rome. As the successor of Greek civilization, Rome also faced tremendous pressure from Greece. Therefore, knowledgeable thinkers in Rome have been trying to establish the autonomy of Roman civilization, which is prominently displayed in the continuous tracing and narration of the founding of Rome as a motif. The theme papers of this volume select four relevant documents, focusing on the construction of the historian Livy, exploring Virgil's expression of the characteristics of Rome through Aeneas, studying the Roman political system as understood by Cicero, and outlining the shaping of Rome by the Christian ideological world. Other permanent columns in this series also have their own characteristics.
