✦ Synopsis

Tracing how virtus informed Roman thought over time, Catalina Balmaceda explores the concept and its manifestations in the narratives of four successive Latin historians: Sallust, Livy, Velleius, and Tacitus. She demonstrates that virtus in these historical narratives served as a form of self-definition which fostered and propagated a new model of the ideal Roman.
