Hannibal's Legacy examines the effects, economical, social, political and religious, on Roman life of Rome's Complete military victory over Carthage in the first two Romano-Carthaginian wars, Ironically Rome's life was deranged ---- irretrievably, as it turned out ---- by the aftermath of this victory. some far-reaching changes had already been made before the war, because, in extending her political control over South-Eastern Italy, Rome had welded her Commonwealth onto the post-Alexandrian Mediterranean World. In any case she would, sooner or later, have had to bring her institutions into line with those of the more precocious contemporary Greek and Phoenician societies. The Hannibalic War and its sequels quickened the pace of this process of adaptation, and the transformation of Roman life now took a revolutionary turn that was catastrophic.
The first Volume Surveys and analysis the structure of the Roman Commonwealth at about the year 266 B.C., and its historical background, and compares Rome with her principal contemporaries in the Mediterranean World.
This Second Volume traces the developments in Peninsular and Transappennine Italy from the second bout of the Double War to the eve of the tribunate of Tiberius Gracchus in 133 B.C., which was the beginning of Rome's one-hundreds-year-long political revolution. It also deals with Rome's relations with the Greek part of the Mediterranean World during the same years. Goodreads.
