The Eternal City - Peter Bondanella - Bog

- Roman Images in the Modern World

Bag om The Eternal City

A major new interpretation of the impact of ancient Rome on our culture, this study charts the effects of two diametrically opposed views of Roman antiquity: the virtuous republic of self-less citizen soldiers and the corrupt empire of power-hungry tyrants. The power of these images is second only to those derived from Christianity in constructing our modern culture. Originally published in 1987.
