Ancient Rome is a topic of universal interest, and experiences with its images and history accompany us in science, literature and art. But how close to reality are our perceptions of that era? This book by Mary Beard, one of the world's leading experts on ancient history, will inevitably change many of them. The Senate and the people, Cicero and Catiline, Hannibal, Caesar, Cleopatra, Augustus and Nero ... Describing the relationship of power and man, political structure and conflicts, the formation of statehood and empire, famous and unknown Romans, the author collapses a lot of myths, makes you look at many events of ancient history in a different way. Here is all the best that the reader can find in popular science literature: deep and comprehensive knowledge of the subject, excellent language of the narrator, the ability to convey the pulse of everyday life. Reading about the distant past, we empathize with it as if we were reading Cicero's own blog, as if we were playing dice in a Pompeian inn.
