Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the premise that the Romans expanded their territory for their own economic advancement and instead posits that their expansion was a series of unfortunate accidents spurred on by defensive wars and their commitment to law and order. It takes for granted previous theories positing that Romans were mostly farmers, but this book argues that a city of 200,000 with trade and industry was unlikely to be primarily composed of farmers. The author further asserts that a more likely explanation for Roman expansion is that they were driven into conflict protecting economic interests, such as grain shipping and commerce. Prior studies of Roman history have often overemphasized the role of military leaders, and this text goes a step further to suggest that even institutions such as the fetial priesthood, previously venerated as the arbiters of true Roman conduct, were not entirely impartial servants of justice. By examining the contradictions, errors, and biases in historical works on Rome, the author demonstrates that scholarly insights are only as good as the philosophies they are constructed from, and that all histories, both ancient and modern, should be subject to critical examination. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330146378_0
