Caii Crispi Sallustii Quae Exstant (1778) is a book written by the Roman historian Sallust. It is a collection of his surviving works, including his two major historical works, the Bellum Catilinae and the Bellum Iugurthinum, as well as a number of shorter works and fragments. The Bellum Catilinae is a detailed account of the conspiracy led by Catiline against the Roman Republic in 63 BC, while the Bellum Iugurthinum is a history of the war against the Numidian king Jugurtha in the 2nd century BC. Sallust's writing is known for its vivid and dramatic style, as well as its moralistic tone and its emphasis on the importance of character and virtue in political life. The book is an important source for the history of the late Roman Republic, and has been widely studied and admired for its literary qualities. This edition of the book was published in 1778, and includes a Latin text with notes and commentary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
