Summary "The Story of Rome from the Earliest Times to the End of the Republic" by Arthur Gilman is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work provides a narrative of ancient Rome, beginning with its mythological origins and extending through the end of the Roman Republic, delving into the lives of significant figures and events that shaped Roman history. The opening of the book sets the stage for an exploration of Rome's legendary beginnings, starting with the tale of the Trojan War and the hero Æneas, who is linked to the founding of Rome. Gilman discusses the blending of myth and history, emphasizing how early tales have influenced the understanding of Rome's past. The introduction leads into stories of Romulus and Remus, the legendary twin brothers credited with founding the city of Rome, detailing the dramatic circumstances of their ascent to power, and setting the tone for a narrative that intertwines heroic exploits with sociopolitical developments in ancient Rome.
