Описание: Julius Caesar and the Fall of the Roman Republic provides an accessible introduction to Julius Caesar?s life and career. It outlines the main phases of Caesar?s public office and describes these phases with reference to prominent social and political concepts of the time. These ideas and institutions help to explain his motives as rooted in tradition, and demonstrate that Caesar was a product of the cultural and historical processes of the late Republican period, which contrasts with the long-held view that he sought to become Rome?s king from an early age. This is an essential undergraduate introduction to this fascinating figure and to his role in the transformation of Rome from republic to empire.

Описание: The crisis and fall of the Roman Republic spawned a tradition of political thought that sought to evade the Republic`s fate-despotism. Thinkers from Cicero to Bodin, Montesquieu, and the American Founders saw constitutionalism, not virtue, as the remedy. This study traces Roman constitutional thought from antiquity to the Revolutionary Era.

Описание: Roman sculpture had been regarded as the `poor relation` of what was seen as the superior art of Greece, but in this highly illustrated 1907 work Eugenie Strong (1860-1943) argues both for its particular aesthetic qualities and also for its importance as a bridge between pagan and Christian art.

Описание: Packed with facts, attributions, and entertaining anecdotes about his contemporaries, Vasari`s collection of biographical accounts also presents a highly influential theory of the development of Renaissance art. Beginning with Cimabue and Giotto, who represent the infancy of art, Vasari considers the period of youthful vigour, shaped by Donatello, Brunelleschi, Ghiberti, and Masaccio, before discussing the mature period of perfection, dominated by the titanic figures of Leonardo, Raphael, and Michelangelo. This specially commissioned translation contains thirty-six of the most important lives as well as an introduction and explanatory notes.
