A Roman Way – Edith Hamilton

Description

The Roman Way is a unique analysis of history, where Edith Hamilton drew upon classics to understand the Roman way of life. Literature has always been a great way to interpret contemporary life and very few could compose it better than her. She dovetailed the works of Plautus, Terence, Cicero, Catullus, Horace, Virgil, Livy, Seneca, Juvenal and Tacitus – with the purpose of throwing light on different aspects of ancient Roman life. Her engaging and addictive text, along with the full-page illustrations in this Hachette Blackjacket edition, make the old world come alive!
