An
acclaimed scholar tells the full, breathtaking history of Rome, from
its emergence in the Iron Age to the capture of Constantinople in the
thirteenth century
When we think of “ancient Romans”
today, many picture the toga-clad figures of Cicero and Caesar,
presiding over a republic, and then an empire, before seeing their
world collapse at the hands of barbarians in the fifth century
AD.
The Romans does away with this narrow
vision by offering the first comprehensive account of ancient Rome
over the course of two millennia. Prize-winning historian Edward J.
Watts recounts the full sweep of Rome’s epic past: the Punic Wars,
the fall of the republic, the coming of Christianity, Alaric’s sack
of Rome, the rise of Islam, the Battle of Manzikert, and the
onslaught of the Crusaders who would bring about the empire’s end.
Watts shows that the source of Rome’s enduring strength was the
diverse range of people who all called themselves Romans. This is the
Rome of Augustus, Marcus Aurelius, and Constantine, but also
Charlemagne, Justinian, and Manuel Comnenus—and countless other men
and women who together made it the most resilient state the world has
ever seen.
An expansive, eye-opening
portrait, The Romans is the definitive history of Rome and its
citizens.
