Tradução e comentários da representação de Aníbal em Valério Máximo

Authors

Abstract

This paper presents a translation into Brazilian Portuguese of an excerpt from Memorable Deeds and Sayings by Valerius Maximus. Bearing in mind that the work is made up of a collection of exempla and that the narrator evaluates the actions of the characters from a viewpoint that favors peace and order, it was decided to observe how one of Rome’s staunchest enemies would have been represented, so the passages chosen are those in which the Roman author of the first century of the Common Era deals with Hannibal. At the same time, the aim is to increase to the general public the visibility of the text – which still doesn’t have a full translation in Brazil. The translation is accompanied by introductory comments that deal mainly with the characteristics of the work and the translation process.
