"Early Roman History has been ignored by the English speaking world." With this comment Tim Cornell embarks on a rectification of this sorry state of affairs. Somehow, he makes less of a case as to why we SHOULD study this history. Most of the data is very sketchy and speculative. Statements abound with "the best we can tell", "it would appear that", "the evidence suggests". He amply covers the main controversies and takes a healthy skeptical view of just about any conclusions. With that in mind, it's hard not to admire his effort; though time (and archeaology) will hopefully rectify the little we know about Rome before the Punic Wars.

Wikipédia en anglais (22)Using the results of archaeological techniques, and examining methodological debates, Tim Cornell provides a lucid and authoritative account of the rise of Rome. The Beginnings of Rome offers insight on major issues such as: Rome's relations with the Etruscans the conflict between patricians and plebeians the causes of Roman imperialism the growth of slave-based economy. Answering the need for raising acute questions and providing an analysis of the many different kinds of archaeological evidence with literary sources, this is the most comprehensive study of the subject available, and is essential reading for students of Roman history.
