Second, the Romans projected all forces for the invasion of Britain over roads in Gaul in 43 AD. Third, from 19 BC until the fall of Rome in the fifth century AD, along the...

ISBN: 9781511634960 / Angielski / Miękka / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Gaius Marius changed the Roman army in 105 B.C.E.

This thesis argues that professional armies rather than citizen militia forces are more successful on the...

Guardians of the Republic
ISBN: 9781511645386 / Angielski / Miękka / 82 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The first substantive portion of the paper will offer an elementary model of natural law reasoning as a point of departure for thinking about law and justice. Although the term "natural law" has many implications, in this paper it stands for the modest common sense proposition that some rights and duties can be discerned, by operation of our reason, from our common humanity and our human relationships. Natural law reasoning has been extended far beyond this basic proposition - but not in this paper, which concedes that disagreement is reasonable and inevitable in the application of this...

Death in Ancient Rome
ISBN: 9780300217278 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For the Romans, the manner of a person's death was the most telling indication of their true character. Death revealed the true patriot, the genuine philosopher, even the great artist - and certainly the faithful Christian. Catharine Edwards draws on the many and richly varied accounts of death in the writings of Roman historians, poets and philosophers, including Cicero, Lucretius, Virgil, Seneca, Petronius, Tacitus, Tertullian and Augustine, to investigate the complex significance of dying in the Roman world. Death in the Roman world was largely understood and often literally viewed as a...

This study, first published in 1969, presents an astute and authoritative depiction of the cultural, religious and secular developments which shook the Roman world in the late 3rd and early 4th centuries AD, much of it under the auspices of the Emperor, Constantine the Great.

ISBN: 9780190251888 / Angielski / Twarda / 648 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Roman Audience: Classical Literature as Social History
ISBN: 9780198718352 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Who were Roman authors writing for? Only a minority of the population was fully literate and books were very expensive, individually hand-written on imported papyrus. So does it follow that great poets and prose authors like Virgil and Livy, Ovid and Petronius, were writing only for the cultured and the privileged? It is this modern consensus that is challenged in this volume.
In an ambitious overview of a thousand years of history, from the formation of the city-state of Rome to the establishment of a fully Christian culture, T. P. Wiseman examines the evidence for the oral delivery of... Who were Roman authors writing for?
