Book Description
Excerpt from Regal Rome: An Introduction to Roman History In the last twenty years, so much has been laid before the English public concerning the early Romans, that but few words of introduction are here needed. Engraved monuments existed from the beginning of Roman story, but they could yield only fragmentary information, not continuous narrative. The actual writing of history came so late, that to recover the early events was an arduous attempt. The writers, in fact, had no critical experience, and were patriotically credulous, even when they aimed at truth. Nor only so, but the aristocracy falsified their family records through vanity, and the Senate garbled their own decrees through party-spirit.

Pages : 383
Book Description
The study of Regal and Republican Rome presents a difficult and yet exciting challenge. The extant evidence, which for the most part is literary, is late, sparse, and difficult, and the value of it has long been a subject of intense and sometimes heated scholarly discussion. This volume provides students with an introduction to a range of important problems in the study of ancient Rome during the Regal and Republican periods in one accessible collection, bringing together a diverse range of influential papers. Of particular importance is the question of the value of the historiographical evidence (i.e. what the Romans themselves wrote about their past). By juxtaposing different and sometimes incompatible reactions to the evidence, the collection aims to challenge its readers and invite them to join the debate, and to assess the ancient evidence and modern interpretations of it for themselves.

Ancient Rome
Author: Paul A. ZochPublisher: University of Oklahoma Press
ISBN: 0806166878
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
In this revised and expanded edition of Ancient Rome, author Paul A. Zoch presents the history and mythology of Rome, from its legendary progenitor Aeneas to the death of the philosopher-emperor Marcus Aurelius in 180 c.e. Zoch guides readers through the military campaigns and political developments that shaped Rome’s rise from a small Italian city to the greatest imperial power the world had ever known, and he includes stories about its protagonists—such as Romulus and Remus, Horatius, and Nero—that are often omitted from more specialized studies. In Zoch’s retelling, the events and personalities of ancient Rome spring to life. We witness the long struggle against the enemy city of Carthage. We follow Caesar as he campaigns in Britain, and we observe the ebb and flow of Rome’s fortunes in the Hellenistic East. Emphasizing both the political and moral lessons to be learned from Roman history—and that remain relevant today—Zoch gives readers a narrative that is both entertaining and informative. An afterword takes the history to the fall of the Roman Empire in the West in 476 c.e.
