"Dio's Rome, Volume 1" by Cassius Dio Cocceianus is a historical account likely composed in the early 3rd century AD. This work provides a comprehensive narrative of Roman history from the foundations of the republic to the reign of Emperor Alexander Severus, focusing primarily on the events during the turbulent times of Septimius Severus, Geta, Caracalla, and others. It deals with the sociopolitical dynamics and significant events of ancient Rome, promising an insightful examination of the empire's complexity. The opening of "Dio's Rome" introduces the reader to the historical context and the ambitions of the author, Cassius Dio, a Roman senator and historian. It outlines the genesis of Dio's monumental work, describing his initial foray into writing and the extensive research he conducted over many years to document Roman events. The early chapters delve into the legends of Aeneas and the establishment of Rome, discussing the foundational myths and early conflicts that shaped its history. Dio sets the stage for a narrative that emphasizes both the grandeur and the eventual decline of Roman political life, weaving in accounts that blend mythological origins with factual history.
