About this ebook

This work seeks to investigate the personality and writings of Appian of Alexandria about the Republic of Carthage, emphasizing his distinctive perspective on it in contrast to his Greco-Roman counterparts. By shedding light on Appian's more balanced approach, we will underscore the need for a discerning eye when interpreting accounts from other Greco-Roman historians. These historians, due to a myriad of reasons encompassing political motivations and cultural biases, often portrayed Carthage through a particular lens that may not align with historical reality.
