From Barbarians to New Men: Greek, Roman, and Modern Perceptions of Peoples from the Central Apennines - Oxford Classical Monographs
Dench, Emma (Lecturer in Ancient History, Lecturer in Ancient History, Birkbeck College, University of London)
This book explores the paradox in Greek and Roman perceptions of the mountain peoples in early Italy - as either dangerous, decadent, and snake-charming barbarians, or as austere, morally upright country-people and soldiers. The author is one of the first to consider in detail the different cultures of ancient Italy and show how Roman identity developed to encompass them.
