University of South Africa 1994 0869818503 / 9780869818503 Hardcover Fine in Near Fine dust jacket 
Dustjacket has minor edgewear. ; Though he may not have realised it, Gaius Marius caused through his political ambition the beginnings of the fall of the Roman Republic. Presenting this view, Evans traces here Marius' rise to pre-eminence, his contribution to legislation and his involvement with other politicians. It was other politicians, this work argues, that emulated or even exceeded a dangerous precedent Marius had set. ; 247 pages

2 Evans, Richard J. QUESTIONING REPUTATIONS Essays on Nine Roman Republican Politicians
Unisa Press 2003 1868881989 / 9781868881987 Softcover Fine 
Contents: Section 1: The Great Men. I. The Military Reputation of Gaius Marius; II. Pompey in the 70s; III. Caesar's use of tribuni plebis; A comparision of Marius Pompey and Caesar. Section 2: The Lesser Figures. IV. Saturninus and Glaucia: a quest for power; V. The Characters of Drusus and Sulpicia; VI. Clodius and Milo: more equals than opposites; A comparison of Saturninus and Glaucia, Drusus and Sulpicius, Clodius and Milo. ; 221 pages; The reputations of a great many figures in history have been established by chance and opportunity: a single victory on the battlefield, a political triumph in domestic affairs. This statement is equally applicable for that century between 146 and 31 BC, which today is usually designated the Late Roman Republic. On the basis of often rather meagre facts, reputations have been constructed and, as a result, whole careers became mythologised by later writers even in antiquity. The main aim of this volume is to question certain reputations in order to place into a more realistic historical context the subjects under discussion.
