Antony Kamm’s
THE ROMANS
Richard Stoneman
This survey of the history, life, and culture of Rome from its foundation to the end of the Roman empire is based on Antony Kamm’s bestselling book, The Romans: an introduction. The web-site version incorporates over four hundred illustrations in the form of photographs from many sources, authentic drawings by historical artists, and maps.
The site covers many of the famous, and infamous, people who governed the republic or ruled the empire; religion and social life; literature, art, architecture, and technology; the army. It also includes sections on state officials and assemblies, the position of women, slavery, education, food, dress, entertainment, the Roman calendar, numerals, and the legacy of Rome. See Site Map for extensive listing.
Additional features include page overviews, parallel notes to supplement the information given in the text and extended captions, period, subject, and individual timelines covering the whole of Roman history, and regular interactive quizzes to enhance the interest and stimulate the mind.
