Reading notes
- The Conspiracy of Catiline §6 the city of Rome
The opening of Sallust's 'archaeologia,' a compressed account of Rome's rise and moral decline that frames the conspiracy.
- The Jugurthine War §8 at Rome everything was for sale
The notorious gibe Sallust attributes to Jugurtha's Roman associates (developed at section 35); the venality of the nobility is the moral pivot of the work.
