Description
The Roman World, 44 BC - AD 180 explores the transformation of the Mediterranean regions and beyond under the rule of Rome's military autocrats. This period saw a complex interplay between imperial politics and everyday life in Rome, with fear of state violence often lurking alongside consent. Martin Goodman examines the role of the military establishment in Roman society, as well as its impact on indigenous cultures and societies across the empire. The book also delves into significant religious changes during this time, including the rise of elective cults and the emergence of Judaism and Christianity from first-century Judaea. This new edition incorporates recent scholarship, offering a fuller narrative history, expanded sections on women's and slaves' histories, and updated illustrations and bibliographical notes.
