Delphi Collected Fragments of Ennius: Illustrated Delphi Ancient Classics 88

Quintus Ennius (239-169 BCE) was an ancient Roman poet who is considered to be one of the founders of Latin literature. He wrote in a variety of genres, including epic, tragedy, and comedy, but he is best known for his epic poem Annales, which recounted the history of Rome from its foundation to his own time. Ennius's work was highly influential on later Roman poets, including Virgil and Horace.
