WHAT DOES EPITOME MEAN IN GERMAN?

Epitome

The epitome is an ancient work, which is a short extract from a more comprehensive work. In ancient times, the extensive history of Titus Livius was epitomized. In the fourth century AD, summaries from the work of Livy were made, which are of particular importance to us, especially with regard to lost books. Epitoms can also refer to a different literary genre, which in Latin is usually called breviarium, which means scarce Latin historiography. These are not an excerpt; they are rather short, independent works. In Roman literature, several Breviaria were written, especially in the Late Antiquity period. In the area of ​​the Breviaria, the histories of Florus and, in Late Antiquity, are the histories of the Aurelius Victor, Eutrops, or Rufius Festus. The later epochs of the fourth century clearly used a common main source, the so-called Enmannian emperor's history.
