Catilinas sammansvärjning 63 f. vt. blev en händelse som inte bara banade väg för Ciceros karriär utan också på ett brutalt sätt förebådade både Caesar och den romerska republikens fall.
De dramatiska händelserna föranledde Sallustius själv anhängare av Julius Caesar att skriva en bok på ämnet och de fick Cicero att tillägna ett antal berömda tal till den process han själv drev gentemot Catilina.
Som alltid i Rom fick maktspelet ett blodigt slut. Catlina och den armé han samlat för att störta republiken höggs ner till sista man vid Pistoria av republikens styrkor i januari 62 f. vt.
I efterspelet gjorde Catlinias samtida, personer som Pompejus och Julius Caesar, allt för att fjärma sig från Catilina. Men det fanns anklagelser också gentemot Caesars beröringspunkter med kuppmakaren.
I boken Catilina ges efterlängtade nyöversättningar av samtliga antika källor, både från latin och grekiska, till de händelser som utspelade sig kring Lucius Sergius Catilina.
Översättning, förord och noter är författade av Alexander Andrée, universitetslektor i latin vid Lunds universitet.

Starting with the most meagre resources, Philip made his kingdom the greatest power in Europe The Greek historian Diodorus of Sicily is one of our most valuable sources from ancient times. His history, in forty volumes, was intended to range from mythological times to 60 BCE, and fifteen of The Library''s forty books survive. This new translation by Robin Waterfield of books 16-20 covers a vital period in European history. Book 16 is devoted to Philip, and without it the career of this great king would be far more obscure to us. Book 17 is the earliest surviving account by over a hundred years of the world-changing eastern conquests of Alexander the Great, Philip''s son. Books 18-20 constitute virtually our sole source of information on the twenty turbulent years following Alexander''s death and on the violent path followed by Agathocles of Syracuse. There are fascinating snippets of history from elsewhere too - from Republican Rome, the Cimmerian Bosporus, and elsewhere. Despite his obvious importance, Diodorus is a neglected historian. This is the first English translation of any of these books in over fifty years. The introduction places Diodorus in his context in first-century-BCE Rome, describes and discusses the kind of history he was intending to write, and assesses his strengths and weaknesses as a historian. With extensive explanatory notes on this gripping and sensational period of history, the book serves as a unique resource for historians and students.

Remains of a universal chronicle.Diodorus Siculus, Greek historian of Agyrium in Sicily (ca. 80–20 BC), wrote forty books of world history, called Library of History, in three parts: mythical history of peoples, non-Greek and Greek, to the Trojan War; history to Alexander’s death (323 BC); history to 54 BC. Of this we have complete Books 1–5 (Egyptians, Assyrians, Ethiopians, Greeks) and Books 11–20 (Greek history 480–302 BC); and fragments of the rest. He was an uncritical compiler, but used good sources and reproduced them faithfully. He is valuable for details unrecorded elsewhere, and as evidence for works now lost, especially writings of Ephorus, Apollodorus, Agatharchides, Philistus, and Timaeus.The Loeb Classical Library edition of Diodorus Siculus is in twelve volumes.
