It is generally considered that romantic attraction, while not necessarily absent, was not the primary consideration in the arrangement of such...
The primary surviving source for Pompey's wives and marriages is Plutarch's Lives.

Plutarch was born c.46 CE, approximately 130...

In 61 BCE, Pompey proposed to marry one of Cato the Younger's two nieces, the other of whom wou...
Shortly after the death of Julia in 54 BCE, Caesar offered for his great-niece, Octavia the Younger, who was presently married to the ex-consul Gaius Claudius Marcellus, as a new wife for Pompey.
