THE ROMAN EMPIRE: ROOTS OF IMPERIALISM

Book ID/图书代码： 10953010B39080

English Summary/英文概要： A millennium and a half after the end of the period of its unquestioned dominance, Rome remains a significant presence in western culture. This book explores what the empire meant to its subjects.
The idea of Rome has long outlived the physical empire that gave it form, and now holds sway over vastly more people and a far greater geographical area than the Romans ever ruled. It continues to shape our understanding of the nature of imperialism, and thus, however subtly, to influence the workings of the world. Unlike most works on Roman history, this book does not offer a simplistic narrative, with military triumph followed by decline and fall. Instead, it analyzes the origins and nature of Roman imperialism, its economic, social and cultural impact on the regions it conquered, and its continuing influence in discussions and debates about modern imperialism. Exquisitely written, this book is perfect for students of classics and ancient history who want to see another side of the Roman empire.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： “罗马”，这个概念早已超越了帝国有形统治时赋予它的形式；对今天人类和地理区域的影响程度大大超过了罗马人当时统治的范围。迄今为止，罗马仍继续塑造我们对帝国主义本质的理解，从而潜移默化地影响世界的运作。不像记录罗马历史的其他大多数作品，本书并没有简单描述一个伴随军事胜利的兴盛衰亡，而是探究了罗马帝国主义的起源和本质、它的经济、社会和文化对其统治地区的影响以及对现代帝国主义讨论辩驳的后续影响。构思精巧，本书对于希望看到罗马帝国另一面的经典古代历史系学生来说是完美的一部。(兼职翻译-JDM)
