Rezension zu „Polybius and Roman Imperialism “
[This] monograph cuts to the heart of Polybius's conflicted attitudes...This book is not a study of Roman imperialism or of Polybius's historiography but an analyis of a historian's personal reaction to his times. With less than half of the original text extant, the author remarkably brings to light the historian's personality and political philosophy. -- Adrian Tronson, University of New Brunswick The Historian
