Abstract
The aim of this paper is to show the influence of chronographical works on ancient literary criticism and philology in Rome between the end of the first century BC and the beginnings of the first century AD. In the first part, the development of chronographic tradition in Rome at the end of the Republic is briefly sketched (par. 1). The second part of the paper deals with the relevance of this kind of works for the literary analyses exposed in Cicero’s Brutus (par. 2), in Velleius Paterculus’ history (par. 3) and in Dionysius of Halicarnassus’ treatise On Dinarchus (par. 4).
