Klingaman's The First Century: Emperors, Gods and Everyman offers a compelling parallel history of the ancient world during the pivotal first century CE, weaving together the stories of three great civilizations at a critical juncture in human history. From the heights of Roman power under Augustus through the reigns of notorious emperors like Caligula and Nero, to the turbulent world of Judea where Jesus lived and died amid Jewish ferment and eventual revolt, to the upheavals of China's Han Dynasty under the usurper Wang Mang, Klingaman creates a vivid panorama of an age that shaped the modern world. Drawing on first-person historical accounts, he brings readers into the daily lives of emperors and peasants alike, exploring everything from the brutal entertainments of the Colosseum to the diet of Chinese farmers, while chronicling the birth of Christianity, the spread of Buddhism to China, and the explosive collision of Eastern mysticism with classical Hellenism. This engrossing popular history reveals the remarkable parallels between East and West during a century of unprecedented transformation, providing essential context for understanding the political, religious, and social forces that continue to shape civilization today.
