Publisher's Summary
This course explores the world of Ancient Rome as students investigate important events and key figures of the epoch. The individual lectures will examine major themes while touching upon the fascinating details of Roman life, such as the Romans' intensely hierarchical social order. Along the way, numerous facts of cultural literacy, such as what it means to "cross the Rubicon", will be illuminated as listeners enjoy Frances Titchener's unique style and finesse. At the end of this course, students will possess a thorough understanding of Ancient Rome's legacy to the modern world, and will have fully considered the poet Vergil's assertion that the Romans' talent was to "rule mankind and make the world obey."

"Entertaining, Informative and Addictive"
Frances B. Titchener delivers an easy to follow lecture series, which kept me entertained from start to finish. I would recommend this to anybody who wishes to familiarise themselves with the most significant events and leaders in Roman history. Professor Titchener charms the listener with humour and captivating narration. I will listen to A History of Ancient Rome again in the future.
