A propos du livre

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The Roman World offers students a chance to explore the life and culture of ancient Rome through original translations of key textual sources and in-depth examination of visual evidence. Covering such important topics as religion, warfare, family life, politics, the pax Romana, and the fall of the Empire, The Roman World is an indispensable resource for courses in both ancient history and the classics. With chapter introductions that help students situate the readings, and maps and discussion questions that help them think more deeply about connections and consequences, The Roman World encourages students to move beyond the simple what, when, and where inquiries of history and become true investigators into the complex fabric of a world whose legacy still endures.
