Life in Ancient Rome
14.99 €
Ancient Rome at the height of its empire resembles a modern metropolis much more than we might think. One and a half million of its inhabitants faced the same problems as their heirs two thousand years later: the cost of housing and traffic jams, the influx of immigrants and the need to "grease" city officials....
The author invites us to "cover ourselves with an invisible hat" and spend a whole day in Rome, from dawn to dusk, in 115 AD: to jostle on a crowded street and look into the Colosseum, to attend a court hearing and luxurious thermae, to taste exquisite dishes and enjoy a conversation at a dinner party. And end the day on a love bed - here too, nothing has changed in two thousand years.
