Would you like a more entertaining way to learn about Roman history, from the Republic to the Empire?
Then Progress and Perils in Daily Life in Ancient Rome: An Entertaining Exploration of Roman History from the Beginning of the Republic to the Fall of the Empire is just the book for you!
If you are a Monty Python fan, you will remember the most-often quoted line from the movie The Life of Brian: "What have the Romans ever done for us?"
The satirical retort to the question was: "apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?"
Using this quotation as our inspiration, we have an entertaining and sometimes irreverent look at the various forms of progress made in civilization in ancient Rome.
We have a look at Roman sanitation, medicine, education, wine, sex, bathing, dining, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system, and public health from an accessible, non-academic perspective in this book, as well as looking at some of the perils or downsides in these advances in civilization.
We discuss the developments in these aspects of daily life for the time period from 753 BC, before the beginning of the Roman Republic, through to the end of the Roman Empire around 1200 years in 476 AD.
Get a more lively and interesting experience of ancient Roman history with this great book!
