		It was a fundamental thrust of Augustan ideology to stress, in spite of the pervasively Greek dimensions of Roman society, the Italic ethnography of the peninsula.
		Dionysius' vision of Roman origins was in large measure an attempt to resolve the tension between the Greek and Roman elements upon which the nature and the very identity of Roman society was based.
		Set in the context of the sweep of the political thought of his times, Dionysius' vision of Rome contrasts with the heavily anti-Roman polemic which he was probably attempting to counter in his interpretation of the role of Greek influence upon Rome.

		Dionysius of Halicarnassus (1.61–62) states that Dardanus' original home was in Arcadia where Dardanus and his elder brother Iasus (elsewhere more commonly called Iasion) reigned as kings following Atlas.
		According to Dionysius of Halicarnassus (1.50.3), Dardanus also had a son named Zacynthus by Bataea and this Zacynthus was the first settler on the island afterwards called Zacynthus.
		Dionysius also says (1.61.4) that Dardanus' son Idaeus gave his name to the Idaean mountains, that is Mount Ida, where Idaeus built a temple to the Mother of the Gods (that is to Cybele) and instituted mysteries and ceremonies still observed in Phrygia in Dionysius' time.

		Together with his friend Dionysius, he was the representative in his time of the Attic style of oratory in contradistinction to the verbose Asiatic style.
		Though Dionysius also wrote on several of the chief orators of Greece, it is either in Cæcilius or his contemporary Didymus that the first account of the caron of the ten Attic orators is found.
		As an evidence of his intellectual curiosity, the study of Cicero is particularly note-worthy, in view of the fact that Cæcilius and Dionysius were the only students of Latin literature at a time when it was the literary fashion to dismiss it with contempt.

		Dionysius of Halicarnassus in particular can make fundamental misidentifications -- at 2.22.3 the MA/NTEIJ he explicitly identifies as haruspices are shown by the following narrative to have been augurs, those who confirm the election of priests.
		When, however, Dionysius alleges that in the regal period Rome's priests were elected by curiae and that their election was confirmed by the augurs (2.22.3), Vaahtera shows that he does not understand the difference between inauguration and auspication.
		Dionysius proves least interested in such technicalities, whereas Cassius Dio (38.13.3-6) provides a very detailed description which renders many technicalities well, but is too concise on the issue of what kind of obnuntiatio was legally binding on a magistrate presiding over elections.

	Greek Tyrants and Roman Anxieties in Dionysius of Halicarnassus
		It begins by considering two questions that previous scholarship has failed to take seriously: the role of the Cumaean digression within the broader context of the early Roman history that Dionysius is relating, and the ways in which he (or his source) may have adapted the Aristodemus anecdote to suit that purpose.
		Dionysius explicitly states that the Romans' ability to resolve this conflict peacefully through political compromise was what made their city great, and that their success in this regard sets them apart from the experience of other Greek poleis, such as Corcyra (7.66).
		As Dionysius presents events, this Roman exceptionalism depended upon the moral character of the individual actors involved.

		Some in antiquity called him a "rustic Demosthenes." But Dionysius of Halicarnassus rated him as one of the best orators who sought to emulate Demosthenes, and his reputation was high enough to ensure that three out of several dozen speeches attributed to him were preserved.
		Some of the speeches, such as the Demosthenic Against Boeotus, are rightly rejected by Dionysius, but one could just as easily argue that some of those dated to earlier than 340 must be by Dinarchus and conclude that the orator must have been eighty or older in 291/90.
		Anyone who is familiar with Dionysius' methods in his dating of Demosthenes' speeches realizes that the critic was not infallible.

		Dionysius, clearly alluding to Thucydides 1.22.4, equally clearly understands ktema as involving anathema, that is, in context, a literary 'memorial'.
		The superscription adumbrates the point: Dionysius of Halicarnassus saw that Thucydides' 'possession' was a 'memorial' (and indeed incorporated this insight into a rather clever and elegant turning of the tables upon Thucydides (n.

		I thus examine Dionysius not for any adherence to group psychology, but with an eye to what Loraux, with reference to Athens, has called the Ïcivic imaginaryÓ: the contentious and seemingly contradictory discourse surrounding ideals of organization within a given society (Loraux 1993, 13).
		I conclude that DionysiusÌ engagement with Latin may indeed be understood as a single, linguistic instance of a more general phenomenon - not a cultural inferiority complex, but grudging awareness of the impermanence and permeability of inter-group boundaries, in particular of those between what was considered Roman and what counted as Greek.
		For Dionysius to have endorsed this idea may not be surprising, but it is important to remember that he did not invent it.

		Dionysius of Halicarnassus had migrated to Rome by 30 BC, where he lived until his death some time after 8 BC, writing his Roman Antiquities and teaching the art of rhetoric and literary composition.
		Dionysius' purpose, both in his own work and in his teaching, was to re-establish the classical Attic standards of purity, invention and taste in order to reassert the primacy of Greek as the literary language of the Mediterranean world.
		Illustrating his analysis with well-chosen examples, Dionysius preserves a number of important fragments of Lysias and Isaeus.

		Pseudo Dionysius has the reputation for being dense reading, even for ancient literature on the mystical life.
		Until the 1500s, many Christians believed that the author of these works was the Dionysius of Acts 17:34.
		In that sense, the choice of Dionysius from Acts 17 is interesting, since Dionysius was converted under Paul's apologetic ministry where Paul quoted, and then expanded/corrected, from the philosophers.

		Since the time of Eduard Schwartz, and even before him, the assessment of Dionysius of Halicarnassus as an historian has been largely negative.
		This discussion, like most others i n the book, is based upon Gabba's impressive familiarity with all the wide-ranging dimensions of the subject at hand, in this case including not only historical and literary analysis but also Roman archaeology and comparative Indo-European mythology.
		Because Gabba touches upon so many topics within such a limited compass, the book will at times be difficult and perhaps frustrating for readers who are less familiar with the many facets of the subject.
