- This book constitutes an extensive body of work, independently researched and produced, on the longest surviving Latin epic, Silius Italicus’ Punica. It deals with a wide range of primary source material in both Latin and Greek and offers the most comprehensive assessment to date on Ancient Rome’s perception of its self-styled greatest enemy, the Carthaginian Hannibal, whom it used as a vehicle for exploring its own identity. Peer reviews have deemed it a major contribution to Silian studies.
