The Roman Empire from Augustus to Late Antiquity: A History of the Roman People (en Inglés) - Celia E. Schultz

The Roman Empire from Augustus to Late Antiquity: A History of the Roman People provides an in-depth, readable introduction to the history of the Roman Empire.

Based on the new eighth edition of the hugely successful A History of the Roman People, this volume offers readers a balanced account of Rome’s evolution from an imperial Republic into a monarchic empire, its emergence into the world of Late Antiquity, and its ultimate decline. It covers Roman history from the principate of Augustus to around 600 CE, exploring the history of the empire at its height through to its decline in the West and continuation in the Roman East. Concluding chapters explore the legacy of Rome and its church and explanations for Rome’s fall.

The Roman Empire from Augustus to Late Antiquity: A History of the Roman People is an excellent introduction for those with no background in Roman history, ideal for undergraduate courses on Rome’s imperial history and Roman culture.
