Jugurtha by Sallust
"Jugurtha" by Sallust is a historical monograph published around 41 BC. It chronicles the Jugurthine War between Rome and King Jugurtha of Numidia from 112 to 106 BC. Sallust reveals how Jugurtha repeatedly bribed corrupt Roman officials, using this conflict to illustrate the moral decay consuming the late Roman Republic. The work shifts between Rome and North Africa, presenting a complex cast of Roman and Numidian leaders whose motivations and loyalties shift
throughout the protracted seven-year conflict. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
