Description

The Cambridge Companion to Ancient Rome offers a comprehensive exploration of history's greatest city beyond its iconic monuments. Rather than focusing solely on the Colosseum, imperial palaces and Pantheon, this scholarly volume examines Rome as a living metropolis where thousands of inhabitants worked, dwelt and faced the everyday challenges of urban life. Thirty-one chapters written by leading historians, classicists and archaeologists cover an expansive range of topics essential to understanding ancient Rome. The collection moves beyond architectural grandeur to investigate practical aspects of city life including food and water supply systems, public games and entertainment, law enforcement and civil unrest, domestic housing arrangements, and the medical and social dimensions of death and disease. This Cambridge Companions to the Ancient World title provides readers with nuanced insights into Roman society, urban management and daily existence, making it an indispensable resource for students, scholars and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of how ordinary Romans lived within the ancient world's largest city.
