When in Rome? | Focus
from Spectacles Out Loud · host Spectacles Media
HBO’s Rome offers a peek into BC-era political dilemmas not unlike our own. The lesson, it seems, is not to do as the Romans did.-Important References-If you're curious to learn more about this period of Roman history and what we might be able to learn from it and apply to our challenges today, Plutarch's biographies are a great insight into the lives of important Romans at any time. This collection is a good one for the period in question. From a more modern voice, Mike Duncan is an excellent and accessible presenter of Roman history, both through his podcast, and his book on this period.-Usual Links-Subscribe to our newsletter!Read or comment on this article!Listen to Spectacles In Conversation!Follow our Twitter! // Follow our TikTok!
