DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Roman Republic and the Founder of the Empire, Vol. 1 In this book, as in Caesar's Conquest of Gaul and Ancient Britain, I have discussed in Part II every problem that arose, and have provided readers who may wish to get behind my narrative with the means of forming their own opinion. Those who do not know Latin or Greek will have little or no difficulty in following the arguments; for where I have quoted extracts from ancient writers I have given their substance or translated them. I hope that those who read only for entertainment or to acquire a general knowledge of the subject will not be deterred by the sight of the Second Part (which some might not find tedious) from testing the staple of the book. In four chapters (VII, VIII, X, and XII), treating of events which I had described before, I have shortened the narrative as far as I could without impairing clearness or weakening force, omitting passages which, though they were required in works devoted to Gaul and Britain, could be dispensed with in a history of Rome.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBrennan's book surveys the history of the Roman praetorship, which was one of the most enduring Roman political institutions, occupying the practical center of Roman Republican administrative life for over three centuries. The study addresses political, social, military and legal history, as well as Roman religion. Volume I begins with a survey of Roman (and modern) views on the development of legitimate power—from the kings, through the early chief magistrates, and down through the creation and early years of the praetorship. Volume II discusses how the introduction in 122 of C. Gracchus' provincia repetundarum pushed the old city-state system to its functional limits.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTHE ROMAN EMPIRE STANDS as the greatest political achievement in the history of Western civilization. From its humble beginnings as a tiny kingdom in central Italy, Rome grew to envelope the entire Mediterranean until it ruled an empire that stretched from the Atlantic to Syria and from the Sahara to Scotland. Its enduring legacy continues to define the modern world. Mike Duncan chronicled the rise, triumph, and fall of the Roman Empire in his popular podcast series "The History of Rome." Transcripts of the show have been edited and collected here for the first time. Covering episodes 1-46, The History of Rome Volume I opens with the founding of the Roman Kingdom and ends with the breakdown of the Roman Republic. Along the way Rome will steadily grow from local power to regional power to global power. The Romans will triumph over their greatest foreign rivals and then nearly destroy themselves in a series of destructive civil wars. This is the story of the rise of Rome.
Rome, the Greek World, and the East

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFergus Millar is one of the most influential contemporary historians of the ancient world. His essays and books, including The Emperor in the Roman World and The Roman Near East, have enriched our understanding of the Greco-Roman world in fundamental ways. In his writings Millar has made the inhabitants of the Roman Empire central to our conception of how the empire functioned. He also has shown how and why Rabbinic Judaism, Christianity, and Islam evolved from within the wider cultural context of the Greco-Roman world. Opening this collection of sixteen essays is a new contribution by Millar in which he defends the continuing significance of the study of Classics and argues for expanding the definition of what constitutes that field. In this volume he also questions the dominant scholarly interpretation of politics in the Roman Republic, arguing that the Roman people, not the Senate, were the sovereign power in Republican Rome. In so doing he sheds new light on the establishment of a new regime by the first Roman emperor, Caesar Augustus.
