Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BCE) was one of the most influential figures in late republican Rome, a moment of great social, political, and cultural unrest that would lead to the transition from republic to empire. Cicero was a statesman who held the highest political office, the consulship, and then suffered politically motivated exile. His career was grounded in his continued success as an orator: his speeches were famous during his lifetime and, together with his rhetorical treatises, shaped the practice and theory of public speaking for centuries to come.

In 432 BCE the powerful city-state of Sparta on the peninsula of the Peloponnesus in southwestern Greece declared war on Athens, head of a mighty naval coalition. The war would last until Sparta finally brought Athens to its knees in 404. The Athenian aristocrat Thucydides, suspecting the magnitude of the conflict that was unfolding before his eyes, at once undertook to record its history, exploring the causes and course of the war in the context of his great interest: human nature.

To secure a comfortable afterlife, ancient Egyptians built fortress-like tombs and filled them with precious goods, a practice that generated staggering quantities of artifacts over the course of many millennia—and also one that has drawn thieves and tomb-raiders to Egypt since antiquity. Drawing on modern scholarship, reportage, and period sources, this book tracks the history of treasure-seekers in Egypt and the social contexts in which they operated, revealing striking continuities throughout time.

Greek and Roman warfare was unlike that of any other culture before or since. The key difference is often held to be that the Greeks and Romans practiced a "Western Way of War", in which the aim is an open, decisive battle - won by courage instilled, in part, by discipline. Here, Harry Sidebottom looks at how this Western Way of War was constructed and maintained by the Greeks and Romans and why this concept is so prevalent today.

The ancient Near East is known as the "cradle of civilization" - and for good reason. Mesopotamia, Syria, and Anatolia were home to an extraordinarily rich and successful culture. Indeed, it was a time and place of earth-shaking changes for humankind: the beginnings of writing and law, kingship and bureaucracy, diplomacy and state-sponsored warfare, mathematics and literature. This Very Short Introduction audiobook offers a fascinating account of this momentous time in human history.

This imaginative and stimulating Very Short Introduction audiobook goes beyond a simple retelling of the stories to explore the rich history and diverse interpretations of classical mythology. It is a wide-ranging account, examining how classical myths are used and understood in both high art and popular culture, taking the listener from the temples of Crete to skyscrapers in New York, and finding classical myths in a variety of unexpected places: from Arabic poetry and Hollywood films, to psychoanalysis, the Bible, and New Age spiritualism.

Il regno di Claudio si dipanò tra successi, insuccessi e congiure come quello dei suoi predecessori e successori, ma fu tutto sommato positivo e sorprendente, considerando soprattutto le non favorevoli aspettative di partenza che tutti nutrivano per il quarto imperatore. Agli occhi di molti Claudio era infatti un perdente, un fallito, uno storpio, una persona che dunque non avrebbe saputo guidare con sapienza un grande impero come quello romano. Claudio sorprese i più, invece, perché si dimostrò abile, equo, lungimirante e deciso nel portare avanti campagne di politica interna ed estera che di fatto risollevarono le sorti dell'Impero minato dalla condotta squilibrata di Caligola.

Gaio Giulio Cesare è il personaggio più famoso della storia di Roma antica, nonché uno dei più noti condottieri di tutti i tempi. In suo onore vennero chiamati "Cesare" gli imperatori di Roma, gli imperatori tedeschi e gli zar russi. Eppure Cesare non fu mai imperatore o re. Nel corso degli ultimi, tempestosi anni della Roma repubblicana, fu cinque volte console, pontefice massimo per quasi vent'anni e dittatore.

Governò la Grecia intera e poi estese le sue conquiste all'Asia, creando in poco più di dieci anni un impero sterminato che andava dall'Egitto all'India: Alessandro Magno indubbiamente fu il più grande conquistatore e condottiero dell'antichità. Fu amato come un dio, e come un dio visse, nel convinto rispetto per le culture e gli dèi dei popoli assoggettati, promosse un'immagine di sé che rivaleggiava con quelle mitiche di Achille ed Eracle da lui tanto conosciute e amate. Pronto a gettarsi in prima linea contro nemici, capace di profonda umanità con gli amici, raccolse la sua stessa sfida al costo della vita: andare oltre i limiti e raggiungere l'eterna grandezza.

Nessun antico sovrano ha ispirato più leggende di Gaio Giulio Cesare. Sotto la sua guida, Roma conquistò territori in tutta l'Europa e nel Mediterraneo, raggiungendo il Mare del Nord e la Gran Bretagna. Il suo acume tattico e la comprensione intuitiva di come lavoravano soldati ed eserciti fece nascere una struttura militare che ha permesso ai generali romani di espandere i confini dell'impero per generazioni future, e la sua visione di un'Europa unita ha ispirato altri leader militari per centinaia di anni.
