Reviews'Cornell's is the most authoritative study of early Roman history to have been written by a single author since Beloch's Romanische Geschichte of 1926. The Beginnings of Rome is an authoritative, important, and timely book from which we are all benefiting, and from which much subsequent study of early Rome will start.' - The Classical Review, 'This is an excellent, informative, and stimulating book that is also very readable. C. has given a clear and bold account of his approach to the problems in a very difficult area of history, and, by doing so, has set up a whole series of challenges to scholars working in all fields of the Roman world.' - Journal of Roman Studies, 'Cornell's is the most authoritative study of early Roman history to have been written by a single author since Beloch's Romanische Geschichteof 1926.

SynopsisUsing 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., Incorporating up-to-date archaeological evidence, and current methodological debates, Tim Cornell provides a lucid and authoritative account of Rome's beginnings and rise in a comprehensive text that will be the standard work on the subject.The beginnings of Rome, once thought to be lost in the mists of legend, are now being revealed by agrowing body of archaeological evidence, much of it unearthed during the last twenty-five years. This new material has made it possible to trace the development of Rome back from an Iron Age village to a major state which eventually outstripped its competitors and became a Mediterranean power. The study of this period raises acute questions of historical method, demanding analysis of many different kinds of archaeological evidence in conjunction with literary sources.Tim Cornell provides a lucid and authoritative account of the rise of Rome in this extensive textbook. He uses the results of up to date archaeological techniques and examines current methodological debates. The Beginnings of Rome offers new and often controversial answers to major questions such as Rome's relations with the Etruscans, the conflict between patricians and plebians, the causes of Roman imperialism and the growth of a slave-based economy. It is the most comprehensive study of the subject available; essential reading for students of Roman history.
