Produktbeschreibung
Justin was a Roman historian that flourished in the second or early third century AD. Almost nothing is known of his personal history. He composed an Epitome of Gnaeus Pompeius Trogus' expansive 'Philippic Histories', a history of the kings of Macedon, which was compiled in the time of Augustus and is now lost. Like his model, Justin employs numerous digressions throughout, rendering the work more of an idiosyncratic anthology than a strict epitome. Divided into forty-four books, it is one of only five surviving major accounts of Alexander, with important insights into his father, Philip II.
