About this product

Product Information

The Roman Empire was a remarkable achievement. It had a population of sixty million people spread across lands encircling the Mediterranean and stretching from England to the Euphrates in Syria, and from the Rhine to the North African coast. This Very Short Introduction covers the history of the Empire, describing how it was formed, how it was run, its religions and its social structure. It examines how local cultures were 'romanised' and how people in far away lands came to believe in the emperor as a God. The book also examines how the Roman Empire has been considered and depicted in more recent times, from the writings of Edward Gibbon, to recent Hollywood blockbuster films.

  • Concise and Comprehensive

    This product is very concise and is much better than reading from a textbook, which usually contains a lot of extraneous information.

  • Great!!!

    Clear and concise writing geared to a student such as myself. It really was a very short introduction though which can be great depending on your reasons for reading it.
