Manufacturer

The history of the Roman Republic lasted 500 years. Great names such as Brutus, Cato, Sulla, Caesar and Octavian stand out from it. But what was the material that held this world together at its core? They were elaborate ceremonies and strictly defined rituals of power that were staged in Rome as if on a stage. In the performance of this magnificent spectacle, every Roman recognized himself and his world and everyone knew where his place was and what was expected of him.

With Karl-Joachim Hölkeskamp, a renowned ancient historian takes his readers to the never-ending performance that forms the heart of the Roman Empire. We suddenly see and understand the countless buildings and monuments - all of which evoke the greatness, the heroes and the order of the Roman world - as a living, meaningful and powerful backdrop against which gods, priests, politicians and people meet, communicate and act. We understand the meaning of the choreographed triumphs and funeral ceremonies, the popular assemblies and cult acts, as the justification and authentication of Rome's eternal power and rule. This book thus becomes a key work for our understanding of the Roman Republic.
