内容提要:
"l'he rise of Rome, from provincial settLement to imperial power,is an epic story that reads like fiction rather than fact. Fable does indeed pLay a part: RomuLus is said to have slain his twin brother Remus and founded the future city-state, both infants having survived abandonment on the banks of the Tiber thanks to the nurturing miLk of a she-woLf.When myth is stripped away, what remains is hardly Less extraordinary.
Ancient Rome traces alL facets of one of the world's greatest civiLizations, from the Legends surrounding Rome's foundation to the strife that precipitated the Empire's collapse. It describes a remarkable imperiaL power that Left an indeLibLe mark on the Lands it occupied. The face of Europe today would be radically different were it not for the rich culturaL, technoLogicaL, linguistic, and administrative Legacy bequeathed it by the Romans. 目录:
