Abstract
This chapter is a study of Greek analyses of Roman civil wars through a Thucydidean lens. For Dionysius of Halicarnassus, as for Plutarch and Appian, as Pelling shows, the Thucydidean template works only indifferently in characterizing Roman civil wars. Greek authors trying to explain the Roman experience were perhaps best served by their master Thucydides in showing the differences between the Roman Republic and Greek city‐states.
