Sinopsis

Trogi Pompei Historiarum Philippicarum Epitoma is a Latin epitome, or summary, of a much larger work by Pompeius Trogus, a Gaul of the 1st century BCE. The original 'Philippic History' in 44 books covered a vast range of world history, focusing particularly on the Macedonian Empire and its successors. Justinus?s epitome is valuable as the only surviving form of Trogus?s work, offering insights into the history of the ancient world as it was understood in the Roman period.Justinus?s work provides a narrative stretching from the earliest times to the reign of Augustus, offering accounts of the rise and fall of empires, wars, and the lives of significant rulers and figures. Though condensed, it retains much of the scope and character of the original, making it an important source for historians and classicists seeking to understand the Hellenistic world and its impact on Rome.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
