Description

The author offers an introduction to the society of ancient Rome. He presents a series of vignettes focusing on the "way of life" of various members of that society, from slave to emperor. The book opens with a description of the historical context and includes an examination of topics such as the family, religion, urban and rural life and leisure activities. This revised edition includes two new chapters as well as full documentation of sources.
