Softcover. Condición: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. One of the greatest multiracial states the world has ever known, the Roman Empire stretched from Britain to the Sahara & from the Atlantic to the Euphrates. Vast & powerful, Imperial Rome instituted many conventions that distinguish life today--reason enough for us to wonder about the men who ruled in her name. Some early writers painted vivid portraits that, with their sensational details, often overshadowed the events of the time. In this book, classical historian Michael Grant uses these writings, augmenting them with evidence from archeology, inscriptions, coins & medallions to reconstruct the lives of 92 Roman emperors. Here are Augustus & Claudius, Gaius & Nero, Aurelian & Constantine, as colorful & diverse a group of men as any in history, alive again in a magnificent collection of biographical cameos as remarkable for their readability as for their depth. Acknowledgments List of Illustrations List of Maps, Plans & Genealogical Tables Foreword The Julio-Claudian dynasty The year of the four emperors; & the Flavian dynasty The adoptive & Antonine emperors The house of Severus The age of crisis Military recovery The tetrarchy & the house of Constantine The house of Valentinian The survival of the East & fall of the West Key to Latin Terms Index of Latin & Greek Authors Index to Maps & Plans.
