370 <strong>The</strong> Early Republic<br />

STUDIES<br />

1. What were the provisions <strong>of</strong> the first treaty between Rome and<br />

Carthage? From this treaty what may we infer as to the relations<br />

between these states? as to their comparative power? What were the<br />

provisions <strong>of</strong> the treaty between Rome and Latium? Does the treaty<br />

represent the two powers as equal?<br />

2. Give an account <strong>of</strong> the Gallic invasion and <strong>of</strong> the sack <strong>of</strong> Rome.<br />

3. Write a biography <strong>of</strong> Pyrrhus, and describe his character. As<br />

a man and a general how does he compare with the most famous<br />

Romans? What was the character <strong>of</strong> the Tarentines? What were<br />

the leading traits in the character <strong>of</strong> Appius Claudius? How does<br />

his policy resemble our "Monroe doctrine"?
