| Summary | "The Roman Traitor, Vol. 2" by Henry William Herbert is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. Set during the tumultuous times of Cicero, Cato, and Catiline, it delves into the dark intrigues and political schemes that contributed to the downfall of the Roman Republic. The story weaves through the lives of significant historical figures, highlighting the character of Catiline and the chaos surrounding the political landscape of Rome at this time. The opening of the novel introduces us to a wealthy Roman patrician’s house near the Forum, emphasizing its stark, antiquated simplicity amidst the grandeur of Rome. It sets a somber atmosphere filled with tension between the political factions of the time, highlighting characters like Aulus Fulvius, a young noble embroiled in scandal, and his father, a stern senator. As the crowd gathers, the dialogue hints at Catiline's treachery and the brewing insurrection against the Senate. The narrative captures the desperate situation as characters engage in discussions fraught with fear and vengeance, bringing the reader into the heart of the political drama and setting the stage for the conflicts that will unfold.
