The Roman Republic was the most remarkable state in history. What began as a small community of peasants camped among marshes and hills ended up ruling the known world. Rubicon paints a vivid portrait of the Republic at the climax of its greatness—the same greatness which would herald the catastrophe of its fall.

Story0
In the 6th century AD, the Near East was divided between two venerable empires: the Persian and the Roman. A hundred years on and one had vanished forever, while the other seemed almost finished. Ruling in their place were the Arabs: an upheaval so profound that it spelt, in effect, the end of the ancient world. In The Shadow of the Sword, Tom Holland explores how this came about.

Story0
Tom Holland gives a dazzling portrait of Rome's first imperial dynasty. Dynasty traces the full astonishing story of its rule of the world: both the brilliance of its allure, and the blood-steeped shadows cast by its crimes. Ranging from the great capital rebuilt in marble by Augustus to the dank and barbarian-haunted forests of Germany, it is populated by a spectacular cast: murderers and metrosexuals, adulterers and druids, scheming grandmothers and reluctant gladiators.

Story0
La storia di Roma comincia con uno stupro: è dalla violenza di Marte, dio della guerra, su una giovane vestale, che nascono Romolo e Remo, i fondatori della città. Raccolti e allattati da una lupa, macchiati dall'infamia del fratricidio, i due gemelli iniettano nel corpo dell'impero più grandioso della storia la natura doppia delle loro origini divine e bestiali: grazia e violenza, sensualità e ferocia plasmano un popolo di poeti sublimi, guerrieri sanguinari e condottieri rapiti dalla vertigine del potere.

Story1
In 480 BC, Xerxes, the King of Persia, led an invasion of mainland Greece. Its success should have been a formality. For 70 years, victory had seemed the birthright of the Persian Empire. In the space of a single generation, they had swept across the Near East, shattering ancient kingdoms, storming famous cities, putting together an empire which stretched from India to the shores of the Aegean. Yet somehow, astonishingly, against the largest expeditionary force ever assembled, the Greeks of the mainland managed to hold out.

The series that began with Rubicon, and continued with Dynasty, now arrives at the period which marks the apogée of the pax Romana.

L'inimicizia, il sospetto, la rivalità tra Occidente e Oriente sono argomenti antichi, se si pensa che è proprio per indagare le sotterranee radici storiche di questa animosità che Erodoto compose le sue Storie, nel v secolo a.C. Eternate nell'opera dello storico di Alicarnasso - e in seguito nelle cronache ellenistiche, romane, medievali, per tacere delle molteplici rielaborazioni letterarie e filmiche -, le figure e le vicende delle Guerre persiane sono saldamente inscritte nell'immaginario occidentale.

The Histories of Herodotus, completed in the second half of the fifth century BC, is generally regarded as the first work of history and the first great masterpiece of non-fiction writing. Joined here are the sheer drama of Herodotus' narrative of the Persian invasions of Greece, and the endless curiosity - turning now to cannabis, now to the Pyramids - which make his book the source of so much of our knowledge of the ancient world.

Step back to a time when the mysteries of the universe could seem overwhelming. Cycles of nature kept predictable time with the sun, the moon, and the stars, yet crops failed, disease struck, storms ravaged, and empires fell without warning. In the region surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, people responded to such tumult with a rich variety of religious beliefs.

This year Christians worldwide will celebrate the 1700th anniversary of Constantine's conversion and victory at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge. No Roman emperor had a greater impact on the modern world than did Constantine. The reason is not simply that he converted to Christianity but that he did so in a way that brought his subjects along after him. Indeed, this major new biography argues that Constantine's conversion is but one feature of a unique administrative style that enabled him to take control of an empire beset by internal rebellions and external threats by Persians and Goths.
