Read the delightfully zany, original story, Thomas, Greatest Lawyer in all...Rome! If you're in a hurry, use the cheat sheet to find just what you need! See ya round the Empire! Join the Empire! Become a Roman Citizen! If you had lived in ancient times, you could have applied to become a Roman citizen. Not everyone who applied was accepted, but anyone could apply. Would you have wanted to become a Roman citizen? Let's find out! The ancient Romans were very different from the ancient Greeks. The ancient Romans were down-to-earth realists , not idealists. You can see this in their statues. The Greeks made statues of perfect people. The Romans created real life statues. A statue of one of the Roman emperors is a good example. His nose is huge! The ancient Greeks would never have done that.

   Extractions: This seminar was last taught in Fall 1997. This seminar examines daily life in the Roman Empire. The focus is on what men and women did on a daily basis and how they felt about it. Key elements include slavery, gladiators, religion and the problems of living in the city of Rome. These elements are examined by reading a selection of ancient literature (including Juvenal and Lucian), as well as works by modern authors. No knowledge of Greek or Latin is required. This course is also intended to help you to develop or acquire skills necessary for academic success. These will include written and oral presentations, library use, computer use, reading and argumentation. Juvenal, The Sixteen Satires Stambaugh, J., The Ancient Roman City There will be no final examination. Assignments are in addition to the reading assignments for various classes. No grades are assigned to some elements (0%), but they must be completed to pass the course. Failure to complete all assignments by the due date will result in automatic failure of the course. Extensions will only be granted for family or medical emergencies. Pressure of work from other courses is not an acceptable reason for late work. All written work must be typed and double-spaced with a bibliography. I have attached some comments on

   Extractions: ANCIENT-THEME.com Daily Life in Rome Within the city of Rome were many people from all over the Empire and beyond. Life was hard, but the city provided many ways to be entertained in leisure time. Following old traditions, all Romans had festivals centered on the gods of fields and crops, but the city had the attraction of the Ludi, or games. In Trajan's time, these holidays totalled about one hundred days per year! The chief entertainments of the Ludi were theatre, and chariot racing. Two Roman playwrights were Plautus and Terence, who wrote low comedies. The works of Greek playwrights we know such as Euripides, Sophocles, and Aristophanes were in use, and most of the actors spoke Greek natively. The majority of Romans preferred a sort of vaudeville theatre with plenty of surprises, nudity and violence on stage. But then what the average Roman really looked forward to were the horses: Left: Chariot Race

Although the form of life changed for some people, the essence of English Celtic society was altered very little. Why? Let's have a look. Administration . One of the first things the Romans did was to involve the conquered tribes in the administration of the province. They set up administrative centres according to traditional tribal territories, and involved the tribal aristocracies in the decision making process. This was standard Roman practice, and a wise one. They made the conquered people responsible for their own administration within a Roman framework. It was part of their plan to bring the benefits of civilization, Roman style, to other peoples. It worked, for the way to prestige and social advancement was through the Roman bureaucracy.

    Extractions: Intellectual transformations The Roman Empire remains with us today not so much as an example of a great super-power in the past, but because the empire itself facilitated the exchange of meaningful ideas. The creation of a common culture that enabled a person in Britain to speak with a person from Syria was of critical importance to the development of European culture. The ideas of classical philosophers that form the basis of the European tradition of thought were transmitted through the Middle Ages because they were integrated into another system of thought that was also a creation of the Roman Empirethe Christian religion.

Credits Introduction The Roman Empire was a vast one, taking in most of Europe and the Mediterranean. The capital city of Rome and other major cities in the empire were built near the sea or rivers, in order to facilitate transport. Roman soldiers built thousands of kilometres of roads throughout this empire. These roads crossed mountains, rivers and deserts and were so well constructed that many remain today. Throughout Europe and parts of North Africa it is still possible to see the remains of Roman towns, villas, forts, baths and walls. The Romans took their culture to all parts of the empire, influencing architecture, clothing, daily life and, of course, the language. On this quest, you will strive to reproduce the Roman influence on Britain and Alexandria in Egypt in your very own television series!
