Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In an age when Rome began to extend its power beyond Italy and across the seas, one queen stood in defiance not as a symbol, but as a force.Teuta, Queen of Illyria and ruler of the Adriatic, emerges from the margins of history as one of the earliest figures to challenge the expanding reach of Rome. Commanding fleets and controlling vital maritime routes, she presided over a world where trade, warfare, and survival were bound to the sea, and where authority was measured in strength and resolve.This compelling historical narrative traces her rise within the Illyrian kingdom and her role in shaping one of the first major confrontations between Rome and a maritime power beyond its borders. Through shifting alliances, naval engagements, and the tensions of an emerging empire, Teuta's story unfolds at the intersection of resistance and transformation.Unlike many rulers whose legacies are shaped by myth, Teuta is remembered through the accounts of ancient historians such as Polybius and later Roman writers, whose perspectives reveal both the fear and fascination she inspired. She was not merely present. She resisted, commanded, and stood against a power that would come to define the ancient Mediterranean.Set against the rugged coasts and storm driven waters of the Adriatic, this work brings together history, narrative, and atmosphere to illuminate a queen whose legacy marks the beginning of Rome's expansion beyond Italy.Teuta is not a footnote in the rise of Rome. She is one of its first great adversaries.From the author of the Powerful Female Rulers of Antiquity series comes a richly detailed portrayal of a ruler whose defiance, command, and legacy shaped the early course of Roman expansion.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Teuta: Queen of Illyria and Resistance to Rome explores one of the earliest rulers to confront Roman expansion beyond the Italian peninsula.As queen of Illyria, Teuta governed a maritime kingdom whose power rested upon coastal strongholds, naval mobility, trade routes, and control of the Adriatic. Her reign unfolded as Rome began extending its influence across the sea and asserting authority over regions it had not previously governed.Drawing upon Polybius, later Roman accounts, archaeology, and the political geography of the Adriatic, this volume traces the events that led to the First Illyrian War. It examines Teuta's position within the Illyrian kingdom, the role of seaborne raiding and commerce, diplomatic conflict with Rome, and the military response that altered the balance of power along the coast.Rather than accepting Roman portrayals without scrutiny, the book considers how imperial authors framed resistance and how Teuta's authority became part of Rome's justification for intervention.Part of the Powerful Female Rulers of Antiquity series, this volume examines a woman whose life shaped the political and cultural world of antiquity. In an age when Rome began to extend its power beyond Italy and across the seas, one queen stood in defiance not as a symbol, but as a force. This item is printed on demand.
