Als Gemeinschaft von Ausgestoßenen beschreiben die Römer rückblickend ihren Urzustand. Da ist interessant, wie schnell diese vermeintlichen Outlaws dazu übergingen, Bündnisse zu schmieden. Wie sie aus Bündnispartnern Vasallen machten. Dass andere Stämme ebenfalls nach der Macht griffen, war nur praktisch. So gab es stetig Druck von außen, der Verteidigung erforderte.

In Our Time is one of BBC Radio's most successful and best-loved programmes, with a weekly listenership of over two million. Since 1998, it has 'transformed the landscape for serious ideas at peak listening time' (The Times), introducing its audience to an astonishing array of intriguing topics, from the epic of Gilgamesh to the gin craze. This special thematic collection focusses on some of the most important rulers, philosophers and writers of ancient Greece, Rome and Egypt.

In Uncommon Wrath, historian Josiah Osgood tells the story of how the political rivalry between Julius Caesar and Marcus Cato precipitated the end of the Roman Republic. As the champions of two dominant but distinct visions for Rome, Caesar and Cato each represented qualities that had made the Republic strong, but their ideological differences entrenched into enmity and mutual fear. The intensity of their collective factions became a tribal divide, hampering their ability to make good decisions and undermining democratic government.

Author, broadcaster and 'rock star classicist' Natalie Haynes is a little bit obsessive about Ancient Greece and Rome. In these four series, she explores some of the most prominent historical and mythological figures from the classical world, telling their stories through a mix of stand-up comedy and conversation.

After the Western Roman Empire ended in 476, a host of new, primarily Germanic people inherited Roman lands, wealth, and ideas in Western Europe. The most notable of these were the non-Germanic Huns, but after them came the Gepids, an important but overlooked group. The Gepids were no less bellicose than the other Germanic tribes or the Huns, causing immense destruction throughout Europe and constantly threatening the stability of the Eastern Roman Empire. The Gepids knew how to use the powerful Byzantine Empire to their advantage and to make alliances with other Germanic tribes.

It took little more than a single generation for the centuries-old Roman Empire to fall. In those critical decades, while Christians and pagans, legions and barbarians, generals and politicians squabbled over dwindling scraps of power, two men—former comrades on the battlefield—rose to prominence on opposite sides of the great game of empire. Roman general Flavius Stilicho, the man behind the Roman throne, dedicated himself to restoring imperial glory, only to find himself struggling for his life against political foes.

Il nome di Spartaco è legato alla terza e più nota delle guerre cosiddette servili, ribellioni di schiavi e non solo, che afflissero lo Stato romano fra secondo e primo secolo a.C. Il libro mostra come quella guerra sia in realtà l'episodio ultimo di una serie di eventi a sfondo sociale e civile che coinvolsero una "seconda" Italia a lungo emarginata. All'indomani di conflitti che avevano lasciato strascichi spaventosi di rovine, lutti, odio, Spartaco fu colui che, ultimo, riuscì a coagulare attorno a sé lo scontento delle popolazioni meridionali, soprattutto appenniniche, non ancora integrate.

At its peak, the Etruscan society of age-old Italy covered circa what's now Tuscany, western Umbria, and northern Lazio, and areas of what's now the Po Valley, Emilia-Romagna, Southeastern Lombardy, Southern Veneto, and small parts of Campania. The first proof of an Etruscan society might be traced back to around 900 BC. This is the Iron Age Villanovan culture, which emerged from the former late Bronze Age Proto-Villanovan civilization in the exact same area and is considered the first stage of Etruscan civilization.

Das Byzantinische Reich wurde während des chaotischen dritten Jahrhunderts gegründet. Es war die Zeit, in der Aufstände und Bürgerkriege an der Tagesordnung waren und die römischen Kaiser nur ein Jahr im Amt blieben. Obwohl es eine der fesselndsten historischen Epochen aller Zeiten ist, ist das Byzantinische Reich weniger bekannt, und es ist selten, dass man ein fesselndes Buch zu diesem Thema findet. Aber das wird sich jetzt ändern.

The modern world has the ancient Romans to thank for the origins of many modern technologies, conveniences, and ideas, from running water, baths, and republican-style government to roads. Similarly, by the third century BCE, the Romans were prodigious monument builders, so much so that the memory of the great Roman Republic and the Roman Empire continues to exist within a cityscape of stone. Rome’s public spaces were filled with statues, arches, temples, and many other varieties of monumental images, and each of these structures had its own civic or religious function.

Scipio Africanus: The Life and Legacy of the Roman General Who Defeated Hannibal During the Second Punic War chronicles how Scipio rose to prominence, his legendary victory at Zama, and the legacy he had on antiquity.

This valuable deal contains multiple titles in one book. The topics are the following: Florence, once a major center of Middle Ages European trade and banking, and one of the most affluent cities in the world; Naples, one of the world's oldest constantly occupied cities; St. Catherine of Siena, a Dominican laywoman, mystic, activist, and writer who impacted Italian literature and the Catholic Church significantly; the Vatican, a landlocked, independent city-state and enclave in Rome, Italy; and the Venetian Empire.

Naples (or, in Italian, Napoli) is the local capital of Campania and Italy's third-largest city, after Rome and Milan, with a population of 967,069 people living within the city's administrative limits since 2017. With a population of 3,115,320 people, its province-level town is Italy's third-most inhabited urbane city, and its city periods for around twenty miles outside the city walls. Naples, established by Greeks in the first millennium BC, is just one of the world's oldest constantly occupied cities.

Scotland is an old country with an ancient history. There is no doubt about that. Many traditions, words, symbols, and other cultural aspects we see as normal today originate from Scotland. Scotland's documented history started with the Roman Empire's entrance in the first century, when the province of Britannia broadened as far north as the Antonine Wall. With all of this history and more in the past few centuries, when things got really interesting, let’s take a look at some of the best-known, most important factors of Scotland’s history, and what we can learn from them.

"La Breve historia de los gladiadores" narra como en los Ludi (escuelas de gladiadores) fornidos prisioneros de guerra, fugitivos o delincuentes se adiestraban en las técnicas de la lucha a muerte, se enfundaban sus armaduras de samnitas, secutores, reciarios, tracios, etc. y se lanzaban a la arena para conseguir la gloria o la muerte. Asimismo, se narra la historia del Coliseo romano, construido por Vespasiano, con un impresionante aforo para 50.000 espectadores que era abarrotado por hordas de ciudadanos romanos, patricios y plebeyos para aclamar a sus gladiadores preferidos.

SCHIETTA, CHIARA, PER TUTTI. LA STORIA RACCONTATA DA INDRO MONTANELLI. "Il Barbarossa". Tratto da "L'Italia dei comuni", un focus sulla figura di un sovrano che in Italia ha lasciato il segno. Oltre a una descrizione dell'uomo e del politico Federico II, Indro Montanelli tratteggia con precisione e acume la situazione italiana del XII secolo, gli scontri tra Impero e Papato, la complessa e cangiante rete di alleanze delle città del Nord. Fino alla battaglia di Legnano e a quel Carroccio che sarà elemento duraturo nell'immaginario collettivo italiano.

"Ab Urbe Condita". La fondazione di Roma. Tratto dal più venduto dei volumi di Montanelli, "Storia di Roma", si ripercorre qui, tra mito e storiografia, la fondazione della città che darà vita all'Impero più longevo di sempre. Un saggio esemplare dello stile divulgativo di Montanelli, capace di mettere in luce, a tratti con ironia e con grande sapienza stilistica, i rapporti con i popoli italici, soprattutto gli etruschi, che avrebbero poi generato quel particolare milieu culturale destinato a governare il mondo nell'antichità.

Historische Vergleiche sind heikel und meist schief. Doch in diesen Fällen sind die Parallelen so frappierend, dass G/Geschichte es wagt, doch einen Vergleich zu ziehen: Zwischen Roms Niederlage in Germanien und dem verlorenen Vietnamkrieg der USA sowie dem Debakel der Sowjetunion und des Westens in Afghanistan. In allen Fällen schickt eine Weltmacht ihre Soldaten in ein Land, das wirtschaftlich und technologisch rückständig ist. Und muss erstaunt feststellen, dass die Einheimischen die fortschrittlichere Zivilisation keineswegs freudig begrüßen.

In 63 BC, frustrated by his failure to be elected leader of the Roman Republic, the aristocrat Catiline tried to topple its elected government. Backed by corrupt elites and poor, alienated Romans, he fled Rome while his associates plotted to burn the city and murder its leading politicians. The attempted coup culminated with the unmasking of the conspirators in the Senate. In How to Stop a Conspiracy, Josiah Osgood presents a brisk, modern new translation of the definitive account of these events, Sallust's The War with Catiline.
