A seminal monograph by Mikhail Mikhaylovich Pokrovsky (1868–1942), a distinguished Soviet classical philologist, this work explores the history of Roman literature from its origins to late antiquity. The book covers key stages of Roman literary development, analyzing works by authors such as Plautus, Terence, Cicero, Virgil, Horace, Ovid, Seneca, and others. It examines genres (epic, comedy, tragedy, oratory, poetry) and their connection to the historical and cultural context of the Roman Republic and Empire. Published during the challenging years of World War II, the book reflects the resilience of the author and the academic community.
