Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller A New York Times Notable Book Named one of the Best Books of the Year by the Wall Street Journal, the Economist, Foreign Affairs, and Kirkus Reviews Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award (Nonfiction) Shortlisted for the Cundill Prize in Historical Literature Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize (History) A San Francisco Chronicle Holiday Gift Guide Selection A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice Selection A sweeping, "magisterial" history of the Roman Empire from one of our foremost classicists shows why Rome remains "relevant to people many centuries later" (Atlantic). In SPQR, an instant classic, Mary Beard narrates the history of Rome "with passion and without technical jargon" and demonstrates how "a slightly shabby Iron Age village" rose to become the "undisputed hegemon of the Mediterranean" (Wall Street Journal). Hailed by critics as animating "the grand sweep and the intimate details that bring the distant past vividly to life" (Economist) in a way that makes "your hair stand on end" (Christian Science Monitor) and spanning nearly a thousand years of history, this "highly informative, highly readable" (Dallas Morning News) work examines not just how we think of ancient Rome but challenges the comfortable historical perspectives that have existed for centuries. With its nuanced attention to class, democratic struggles, and the lives of entire groups of people omitted from the historical narrative for centuries, SPQR will to shape our view of Roman history for decades to come.

Book excerpt: Het oude Rome is belangrijk. De geschiedenis van het rijk, van zijn veroveringen, wreedheid en uitspattingen, is voor ons nog altijd een ijkpunt. Zijn mythen, verhalen, disputen en problemen houden ons nog altijd bezig. SPQR biedt een frisse kijk op de Romeinse geschiedenis door een van ’s werelds belangrijkste classici. Mary Beard onderzoekt niet alleen hoe Rome van een onbelangrijk dorp in Midden-Italië uitgroeide tot een wereldmacht die heerste over een gebied van Spanje tot in Syrië, maar ook hoe de Romeinen zichzelf en hun wereld zagen, en waarom dat van belang is tot in onze eeuw. Deze gezaghebbende geschiedenis omspant duizend jaar, en werpt een nieuw licht op veel aspecten van de Romeinse beschaving, van de slavernij en de religie tot het stromend water. Het is het definitieve boek over het oude Rome, verrassend en goedgeschreven.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La città di Roma era la più grande megalopoli dell'epoca, con una popolazione che avrebbe potuto superare il milione di persone, con una stima di alto livello di 3,6 milioni. Una parte sostanziale della popolazione viveva in innumerevoli centri urbani, con una popolazione di almeno 10.000 e in diversi insediamenti militari, un tasso molto elevato di urbanizzazione secondo gli standard preindustriali. La maggior parte dei blocchi abitativi era affollata e pericolosa, i residenti vivevano nella costante paura del fuoco.

Book excerpt: L'ancienne Rome était une métropole tentaculaire de plus d'un million d'habitants, un «mélange de luxe et de saleté, de liberté et d'exploitation, de fierté civique et de guerre civile meurtrière ». Mais comment ce qui n'était qu'un village insignifiant dans le centre de l'Italie est-il devenu le siège d'un empire dominant la méditerranée ? Mary Beard, historienne de renommée mondiale, raconte ici l'émergence puis la chute d'une culture sans précédent, qui a façonné nombre de nos concepts fondamentaux sur le pouvoir, la citoyenneté, la guerre, la violence politique, l'empire, le luxe ou la beauté. Du mythe fondateur de Romulus et Remus (VIIIe av. J.-C.), à l'édit de l'empereur Caracalla offrant la citoyenneté romaine à tous les habitants libres de l'empire (IIIe siècle), Mary Beard retrace toute l'histoire de l'Urbs. Se faisant, elle conteste les perspectives historiques confortables en voguent depuis des siècles. Refusant l'admiration simpliste ou la condamnation systématique, elle montre que l'histoire romaine, loin d'être figée dans le marbre, est constamment révisée et réécrite, en fonction des nouvelles connaissances. Ainsi des célèbres personnages - Cicéron, César, Cléopâtre, Auguste et Néron, entre autres – prennent une toute autre couleur, tandis que les acteurs négligés dans les histoires traditionnelles – les femmes, les esclaves et ex-esclaves, les conspirateurs et, globalement, ceux qui ne sont pas du côté des vainqueurs – retrouvent leur place dans l'éblouissante aventure romaine. Notre perception de la Rome antique a considérablement changé au cours des cinquante dernières années. SPQR en fait la synthèse et façonnera probablement à son tour notre regard sur l'histoire de Rome pendant les décennies à venir.

Book excerpt: Quando si parla dell'Antica Roma si fa spesso riferimento ai monumenti e alle varie tradizioni popolari che sono rimaste nella storia come impronte indelebili, ma non si porta mai avanti il discorso sulle vicende storico-giuridiche dell'epoca. In questo manuale si vogliono affrontare non soltanto le dinamiche della vita romana di quei tempi, ma anche la tematica della Lex Aquilia, che si presentava sia come una vera e propria forma di delitto e sia come un semplice caso di danneggiamento. Per chi vuol sapere di più sugli aspetti attraenti e misteriosi dell'Antica Roma, questo è il testo giusto per affrontarli e scrutarli nel migliore dei modi.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Da Augusto a Marco Aurelio: quando l’impero raggiunge il massimo splendore Come si fa a stabilire qual è il secolo d’oro dell’antica Roma? Ci fu davvero un secolo d’oro? Quello che è certo è che si può parlare di un’epoca di oltre un secolo e mezzo piena di eventi che hanno portato Roma all’acme della sua potenza per poi dare inizio a un fisiologico e inesorabile declino. Questo libro si propone di analizzare il periodo che va dal principato di Augusto fi no alla morte di Marco Aurelio per capire come è cambiata Roma in quegli anni e perché. Ogni imperatore ha contribuito a plasmare l’impero romano ma anche a favorirne il crepuscolo, ecco perché non bisogna accontentarsi di un elenco di dati biografi ci ma è necessario procedere con un’analisi dell’operato di ognuno da un punto di vista militare e legislativo. Solo considerando questi aspetti in quell’arco di tempo, infatti, sarà possibile farsi un’idea della grandezza di una civiltà che ha saputo influenzare in modo così incisivo le sorti della storia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How would the history of an urban area look if water were at the center of analysis? Water in the Making of a Socio-Natural Landscape explores the transition from early modern to modern water management in late nineteenth-century Rome. It merges local water management with national water policies aimed at promoting irrigated agriculture, industrial processes, and public health. It investigates perceptions and conceptualisations of water, changes in the water law, engineering projects, medical knowledge and practices, value of water in different productions, and needs and uses of local stakeholders. From which derives that water infrastructures are the complex outcome of the clash between different users and uses of water as well as the dynamic interaction between different levels of power. In this book, it builds upon Maria Kaika’s Cities of flows and Erik Swyngedouw’s Liquid power to introduce a new dimension to the analysis of urban water: the interaction among the three main uses of water: drinking, agriculture, and industry. Water in the Making of a Socio-Natural Landscape is written for a specialist readership with an interest in environmental and urban history and science and technology studies, but it can also be used by graduate and PhD students.

Book excerpt: "From the bestselling author of SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome, the fascinating story of how images of Roman autocrats have influenced art, culture, and the representation of power for more than 2,000 years what does the face of power look like? Who gets commemorated in art and why? And how do we react to statues of politicians we deplore? In this book-against a background of today's "sculpture wars"-Mary Beard tells the story of how for more than two millennia portraits of the rich, powerful, and famous in the western world have been shaped by the image of Roman emperors, especially the "twelve Caesars," from the ruthless Julius Caesar to the fly-torturing Domitian. Twelve Caesars asks why these murderous autocrats have loomed so large in art from antiquity and the Renaissance to today, when hapless leaders are still caricatured as Neros fiddling while Rome burns.Beginning with the importance of imperial portraits in Roman politics, this richly illustrated book offers a tour through 2,000 years of art and cultural history, presenting a fresh look at works by artists from Memling and Mantegna to the nineteenth-century African American sculptor Edmonia Lewis, as well as by generations of now-forgotten weavers, cabinetmakers, silversmiths, printers, and ceramicists. Rather than a story of a simple repetition of stable, blandly conservative images of imperial men and women, Twelve Caesars is an unexpected tale of changing identities, clueless or deliberate misidentifications, fakes, and often ambivalent representations of authority.From Beard's reconstruction of Titian's extraordinary lost Room of the Emperors to her reinterpretation of Henry VIII's famous Caesarian tapestries, Twelve Caesars includes some fascinating detective work and offers a gripping story of some of the most challenging and disturbing portraits of power ever created.Published in association with the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC"--

Download or read book Rome: Continuing Encounters between Past and Present written by Dorigen Caldwell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few other cities can compare with Rome's history of continuous habitation, nor with the survival of so many different epochs in its present. This volume explores how the city's past has shaped the way in which Rome has been built, rebuilt, represented and imagined throughout its history. Bringing together scholars from the disciplines of architectural history, urban studies, art history, archaeology and film studies, this book comprises a series of studies on the evolution of the city of Rome and the ways in which it has represented and reconfigured itself from the medieval period to the present day. Moving from material appropriations such as spolia in the medieval period, through the cartographic representations of the city in the early modern period, to filmic representation in the twentieth century, we encounter very different ways of making sense of the past across Rome's historical spectrum. The broad chronological arrangement of the chapters, and the choice of themes and urban locations examined in each, allows the reader to draw comparisons between historical periods. An imaginative approach to the study of the urban and architectural make-up of Rome, this volume will be valuable not only for historians of art and architecture, but also for students of cultural history and film studies.
