Opis

In post-imperial Britain our conceptions of what an empire is or should be have changed, and this study of the organisation of the Roman Empire reflects that mood, using up-to-date research and material to provide a contemporary approach to the Roman exercise of power. It looks at the growth and organisation of the empire; government and taxation; the impact of maonarchy; cities and local government; Roman law and citizenship; publicity, theatre and cult.

'This series is relevant for all teachers whatever their own particular circumstances. Above all, it is the quality of the communication between teachers and children and the organisation and the nature of the tasks provided that matter.
