Explore the turbulent politics of late Republican Rome and the forces that reshaped an empire. This scholarly lecture examines the era leading up to Rome’s emblematic collapse, tracing the ambitions of Cicero, Caesar, Clodius, Pompey, and others as they collide over power, loyalty, and law.
Drawing on historical episodes and contemporary commentary, the work analyzes how representatives of Rome’s Senate, the popular assemblies, and military might interacted—and how those dynamics led to a republic in crisis. It invites readers to weigh competing viewpoints about virtue, ambition, and the price of political change.
Ideal for readers of political history and classicists seeking a focused, documentary-style look at Rome just before its final collapse.
