The life, dramatic reign, and enduring legacy of the pharaoh Ramesses the Great, with lessons for the present, from internationally acclaimed Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson.Ramesses II ruled the Nile Valley and the wider Egyptian empire from 1279 to 1213 B.C., one of the longest reigns in pharaonic history. He was a cultural innovator, a relentless self-promoter, and an astute diplomat?the peace treaty signed after the Battle of Kadesh was the first in recorded history. He outbuilt every other Egyptian pharaoh, leaving behind the temples of Abu Simbel; the great hypostyle hall of Karnak; the tomb for his wife Nefertari; and his own memorial, the Ramesseum.His reputation eclipsed that of all other pharaohs as well: he was decried in the Bible as a despot, famed in literature as Ozymandias, and lauded by early antiquarians as the Younger Memnon. His rule coincided with the peak of ancient Egypt's power and prosperity, the New Kingdom (1539?1069 B.C.).In this authoritative biography, Toby Wilkinson considers Ramesses' preoccupations and preferences, uncovering the methods and motivations of a megalomaniac ruler, with lessons for our own time.(https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300256659/ramesses-the-great/)

Machtsstrijd tekent het oude Rome. Geweld en persoonlijke belangen bepalen de politieke ontwikkelingen. En daarbij wordt geen enkel middel geschuwd. Van grote militaire overwinningen tot het elimineren van machtige medeburgers. Politieke leiders staan voor een simpele keuze: moorden of vermoord worden. De tien hoofdpersonen in dit boek zien zich als geen ander hiermee geconfronteerd. Sommigen maken deel uit van het systeem, terwijl anderen zich er juist tegen verzetten. In alle gevallen eindigt hun bemoeienis met de Romeinse machtspolitiek in een persoonlijke tragedie.Moorden om macht belicht de Romeinse geschiedenis aan de hand van tien levens, van Romulus tot en met Attila.
