JULIUS CAESAR A Life
Routledge. Fine with no dust jacket. 2006. Hardcover. 0415364159 . 0.63 x 9.21 x 6.14 Inches; 172 pages; This is a fresh account of Julius Caesar - a brilliant politician and intriguing figure who became sole ruler of the Roman Empire. "Julius Caesar" examines key figures such as Marius Sulla Cicero Mark Antony Gaius Octavius emperor Augustus Calpurnia and Cleopatra as well as the unnamed warriors who fought for and against him and politicians who supported and opposed him. Including new translations from classical sources Antony Kamm sets Caesar's life against the historical political and social background of the times and addresses key issues: Did Caesar destroy the Republic What was the legality of his position and the moral justifications of his actions How good general was he What was his relationship with Cleopatra Why was he assassinated What happened next This is Caesar - the lavish spender the military strategist a considerable orater and historical writer and probably the most influential figure of his time - in all his historical glory. .

Braund, David
RULING ROMAN BRITAIN Kings Queens Governors and Emperors from Julius Caesar to Agricola
Routledge. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1996. Hardcover. 0415008042 . Minor shelfwear to DJ else Fine. ; In this book David Braund offers a significantly different perspective upon the history of Roman Britain. Rather than relying on archaeology the author concentrates on the literary evidence drawing a colorful picture of the social and political context of Roman imperialism. The study discusses Roman theories of imperialism as well as the intellectual and political atmosphere within which Caesar mounted his invasions of Britain in 55 and 54 B. C. Braund shows how the ideologies and power structures at work in Rome fundamentally shaped politics and society in Roman Britain. Thus he develops an understanding of the literary sources which goes beyond mere translation and allows the reader insights into this remote corner of the Roman world. ; 0.87 x 8.43 x 5.67 Inches; 217 pages .

Konrad provides the first book-length commentary on Plutarch's Life of Sertorius the work that has shaped most modern interpretations of the man and his career. Quintus Sertorius 126-73 B. C. was a political and military leader during the period of turmoil that ended with the Roman Republic's disintegration just thirty years after his death. A major figure on the losing side in the first civil war 87-82 B. C. he went to Spain to continue the struggle against the ruling senatorial faction with the help of Roman exiles and the native population. His military skill was much admired but his increasingly despotic behavior combined with failing luck in the field eventually prompted Sertorius' assassination by his Roman staff. One of Plutarch's most austere biographies Sertoriuslacks the rich color and wealth of anecdote characteristic of his Antony or Perikles yet it is unsurpassed in its seemingly unbounded sympathy for its subject and is the most substantial source extant on Sertorius. By analyzing Plutarch's method and purpose Konrad develops a more critical and less eulogistic view of Sertorius' character and his actions during this period. The Greek text of Plutarch's biography is included in this book. . The University of North Carolina Press hardcover

Iconological Studies in Roman Art No Iconological Studies in Roman Art No 1; 0.9 x 8.9 x 6 Inches; 179 pages; In this iconological study the author demonstrates the invalidity of the current interpretation of the relief on the so-called Peleus and Thetis sarcophagus in the Villa Albani in Rome an interpretation which goes back to Winckelmann. By applying a modern art-historical method he arives at a fundamentally new interpretation. It becomes clear that the splendid sarcophagus in the Villa Albani is highly characteristic of academic art of the Hadrianic era. The unique nature of the representation on the Albani sarcophagus which consists mainly of allegorical figures makes it an excellent point of entry for the interpretation of mythological scenes applied in a funerary context. .

Laminated cover. ; 2002 Oxford reprint of 1985 Edition ; Oxford Historical Monographs; 1.1 x 8.84 x 5.9 Inches; 300 pages; European history from 1480 to 1570 was a period of turbulent change political upheaval profound moral questioning and urgent philosophical speculation. This book explores the intriguing role of the almost-forgotten Congregation of Benedictine monks of Italy and southern France in the events of these tumultuous years. From archival and published records the picture emerges of a closely-knit order of humanist scholars whose religious and philosophical studies later put them in a unique position to understand the Reformers. The book also casts light on the monks' fascinating reaction to the Reformation as they poured out a stream of academic books tracts sermons and poems in their attempt to heal the deepening rift between Rome and the Reformers. Critized and misunderstood by all sides the Congregation gradually fell into decline until it was finally suppressed under the Napoleanic invasions. . Oxford University Press hardcover

Princeton University Press. Fine with no dust jacket. 1973. First Edition. Hardcover. 0691092273 . 233 pages; Athens was the dominant maritime power in the West from the eighth to fourth centuries BCE. Athenian preeminence insured that its maritime law was accepted throughout the Mediterranean world. Indeed its influence outlasted Athens and is the only area of classical Greek law that wasn't replaced entirely by Roman models. Codified during the Roman period in the Rhodian Sea laws it went on to influence the subsequent development of European commercial and maritime law. Cohen explores the development of Athenian maritime law the jurisdiction and procedure of the courts and the Athenian principles that have endured to the present day. .
