The transformation of state and society, the violent transference of power and property, and the establishment of Augustus' rule are presented in an unconventional narrative, which quotes from ancient evidence, refers seldomly to modern authorities, and states controversial opinions quite openly Analysis Rome - Politics and government - 265-30 B.C Rome - Politics and government - 30 B.C.-68 A.D Notes Lst ed originally published 1939 Bibliography Bibliography: pages 530-534 SUBJECT Rome -- History -- 53-44 B.C. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115122 Rome -- History http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115108 -- 60 B.C. - 14 A.D Rome -- History -- Augustus, 30 B.C.-14 A.D. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115125 Rome -- History -- Civil War, 43-31 B.C. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115124 Rome -- History -- First Triumvirate, 60-53 B.C. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115121 Rome -- History. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115108 Rome -- Politics and government -- 265-30 B.C. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115180 Rome -- Politics and government -- 30 B.C.-68 A.D. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115181 LC no. 60051198 ISBN 0198810016
