Tradition and Innovation: Sicily Between Hellenism and Rome
Efrem Zambon
A highly detailed political study of Sicily between the death of Agathocles in 289 BC and the end of the First Punic War in 241 BC. Efrem Zambon traces not only the complex course of events, including the Sicilian expedition of Pyrrhus, and the reign of Hiero of Syracuse, but also the development of the institutions of the Sicilian city-states. These years saw the failure of Agathocles' attempt to introduce a Hellenistic monarchy, modelled on the successor states, but other innovations did take hold, many of which survived the Roman conquest.
