书籍简介

终于，一部呼唤着人们讲述却从未被讲述过的罗马帝国史出现了！’ 罗德里克·比顿

西方历史上伟大的帝国——被讲述。

罗马常常因其惊世骇俗的衰亡而被人们铭记。但在两千多年的时间里，经历了内战、瘟疫、入侵和宗教动乱，罗马帝国得以幸存、适应并重塑自我。从台伯河畔泥泞的定居点到君士坦丁堡金碧辉煌的宫廷，这是一个不为人知的文明的传奇。

在《罗马人》一书中，历史学家爱德华·J·沃茨讲述了第一部真正完整的罗马史，涵盖了其史诗般的篇章：布匿战争、共和国的衰落、基督教的传入、阿拉里克对罗马的劫掠、伊斯兰教的兴起，以及终导致帝国覆灭的十字军东征。这是奥古斯都、马可·奥勒留和君士坦丁的罗马。但它也是查理曼大帝、查士丁尼和曼努埃尔·科穆宁的罗马，以及无数塑造了帝国的形形色色的男男女女的罗马：非洲皇帝、拜占庭知识分子和普通民众，他们的忠诚共同使罗马成为世界上有史以来具韧性的国家。

这是一部内容广泛、令人大开眼界的罗马及其公民的历史。

At last, a history of the Roman state as it has always been crying out to be told, and never has been!' RODERICK BEATON

The greatest empire in Western history - told as never been told before.

Rome is often remembered for its spectacular collapse. But for over two thousand years - through civil wars, plagues, invasions, and religious upheaval - the Roman state survived, adapted, and reinvented itself. From a muddy settlement on the banks of the Tiber to the glittering court of Constantinople, this is the untold story of a civilisation that endured.

In The Romans, acclaimed historian Edward J.

Watts tells the first truly complete history of Rome in all its epic sweep: the Punic Wars, the fall of the republic, the coming of Christianity, Alaric's sack of Rome, the rise of Islam and the onslaught of the Crusaders who would bring about the empire's end. This is the Rome of Augustus, Marcus Aurelius, and Constantine. But it is also the Rome of Charlemagne, Justinian, and Manuel Comnenus, and countless diverse men and women who shaped the empire: African emperors, Byzantine intellectuals and ordinary citizens whose loyalty together made it the most resilient state the world has ever seen.

An expansive, eye-opening portrait, this is the definitive history of Rome and its citizens.
