Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Society in Rome Under the Caesars The manners and customs of the Romans at the time of their greatest power and civilisation have naturally been made the subject of much research and many speculative treatises. They have been reconstructed in the minutest details from the evidence of those ancient authorities which time has spared us, and from the relics which excavation has continually been bringing to light. Thanks to the labours of scholars and archaeologists in Germany and elsewhere, we can picture to ourselves many scenes of Roman life with as much clearness and accuracy as those which we see around us.

Book Mortal Republic

    Book Details:
  • Author : Edward J. Watts
  • Publisher : Basic Books
  • Release : 2018-11-06
  • ISBN : 0465093825
  • Pages : 339 pages

Download or read book Mortal Republic written by Edward J. Watts and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn why the Roman Republic collapsed -- and how it could have continued to thrive -- with this insightful history from an award-winning author. In Mortal Republic, prize-winning historian Edward J. Watts offers a new history of the fall of the Roman Republic that explains why Rome exchanged freedom for autocracy. For centuries, even as Rome grew into the Mediterranean's premier military and political power, its governing institutions, parliamentary rules, and political customs successfully fostered negotiation and compromise. By the 130s BC, however, Rome's leaders increasingly used these same tools to cynically pursue individual gain and obstruct their opponents. As the center decayed and dysfunction grew, arguments between politicians gave way to political violence in the streets. The stage was set for destructive civil wars -- and ultimately the imperial reign of Augustus. The death of Rome's Republic was not inevitable. In Mortal Republic, Watts shows it died because it was allowed to, from thousands of small wounds inflicted by Romans who assumed that it would last forever.

Book Ten Caesars

    Book Details:
  • Author : Barry Strauss
  • Publisher : Simon & Schuster
  • Release : 2020-03-03
  • ISBN : 1451668848
  • Pages : 432 pages

Download or read book Ten Caesars written by Barry Strauss and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bestselling classical historian Barry Strauss delivers “an exceptionally accessible history of the Roman Empire…much of Ten Caesars reads like a script for Game of Thrones” (The Wall Street Journal)—a summation of three and a half centuries of the Roman Empire as seen through the lives of ten of the most important emperors, from Augustus to Constantine. In this essential and “enlightening” (The New York Times Book Review) work, Barry Strauss tells the story of the Roman Empire from rise to reinvention, from Augustus, who founded the empire, to Constantine, who made it Christian and moved the capital east to Constantinople. During these centuries Rome gained in splendor and territory, then lost both. By the fourth century, the time of Constantine, the Roman Empire had changed so dramatically in geography, ethnicity, religion, and culture that it would have been virtually unrecognizable to Augustus. Rome’s legacy remains today in so many ways, from language, law, and architecture to the seat of the Roman Catholic Church. Strauss examines this enduring heritage through the lives of the men who shaped it: Augustus, Tiberius, Nero, Vespasian, Trajan, Hadrian, Marcus Aurelius, Septimius Severus, Diocletian, and Constantine. Over the ages, they learned to maintain the family business—the government of an empire—by adapting when necessary and always persevering no matter the cost. Ten Caesars is a “captivating narrative that breathes new life into a host of transformative figures” (Publishers Weekly). This “superb summation of four centuries of Roman history, a masterpiece of compression, confirms Barry Strauss as the foremost academic classicist writing for the general reader today” (The Wall Street Journal).

Book The Roman Empire

    Book Details:
  • Author : Peter Garnsey
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2015
  • ISBN : 0520285980
  • Pages : 352 pages

Download or read book The Roman Empire written by Peter Garnsey and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Principate (roughly 27 BCE to 235 CE), when the empire reached its maximum extent, Roman society and culture were radically transformed. But how was the vast territory of the empire controlled? Did the demands of central government stimulate economic growth or endanger survival? What forces of cohesion operated to balance the social and economic inequalities and high mortality rates? How did the official religion react in the face of the diffusion of alien cults and the emergence of Christianity? These are some of the many questions posed here, in the new, expanded edition of Garnsey and Saller's pathbreaking account of the economy, society, and culture of the Roman Empire. This second edition includes a new introduction that explores the consequences for government and the governing classes of the replacement of the Republic by the rule of emperors. Addenda to the original chapters offer up-to-date discussions of issues and point to new evidence and approaches that have enlivened the study of Roman history in recent decades. A completely new chapter assesses how far Rome’s subjects resisted her hegemony. The bibliography has also been thoroughly updated, and a new color plate section has been added.

Book CiceroHis Friends   A Study of Roman Society In The Time of Caesar

This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Cicero and His Friends: A Study of Roman Society in the Time of Caesar, Gaston Boissier presents an insightful and engaging examination of Roman society during one of its most tumultuous periods. This scholarly work offers a detailed exploration of the social, political, and cultural dynamics of Rome through the lens of Cicero, one of its most influential figures. Boissier’s study delves into Cicero’s personal and professional relationships, illuminating the intricate web of friendships and alliances that defined his life and career. Through meticulous analysis of Cicero’s letters, speeches, and historical context, the book provides a vivid portrayal of Roman social structures and the challenges faced by its citizens. The narrative not only highlights Cicero’s role in the political landscape of his time but also explores the broader societal changes occurring as Rome transitioned from a Republic to an Empire. Boissier skillfully interweaves Cicero’s personal anecdotes with a broader examination of Roman customs, governance, and public life, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of the era. Cicero and His Friends is an essential read for scholars of Roman history, classical studies enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the complexities of ancient Roman society. Boissier’s authoritative research and engaging prose make this book a valuable resource for understanding the human aspects of historical figures and the society they inhabited.
