About this listen

Catiline's War, by Sallust, who was better known as Gaius Sallustius Crispus, (86-c. 35 BC), tells of the conspiracy in 63 BCE led by L. Sergius Catilina, who plotted to assassinate numerous senators and take control of the Roman government but was thwarted by Cicero. Sallust describes Catiline as the enemy of law, order, and morality. Cataline fled Rome, and his much-reduced army first tried to reach Gaul but was blocked. Eventually it engaged the army of Gaius Antonius near Pistoia where Cataline died in battle. Sallust wrote in a distinctive Latin style that is quite different from other historians of the era.
