Abstract

Une histoire qui ne cesse de nous interroger sur notre present, de la montee des populismes en passant par les origines de l'imperialisme, jusqu'à la question complexe de l'integration de populations diverses au sein de grands ensembles politiques. La Rome antique ne cesse de nous interpeller sur notre present. Comment l'histoire de la fin de la Republique romaine, marquee par la violence politique et la montee du populisme à l'epoque des Gracques et de Cesar, peut-elle nous aider à reflechir aux problemes des democraties liberales? Comment l'extension de la citoyennete romaine à des dizaines de millions de personnes peut-elle nous aider à reflechir aux defis contemporains de la mondialisation? Quel rôle ont joue les changements climatiques et les epidemies dans la chute de l'Empire? Le rapport complexe qu'entretient l'Occident avec son passe greco-romain ne doit cependant pas faire illusion : Rome ne cesse de nous fasciner et d'alimenter notre imaginaire collectif, au moyen de la litterature, de la television ou du cinema, parce qu'elle est à la fois familiere et loin de nous. Étudier l'histoire de la Rome antique, c'est etudier une civilisation qui est autre . Loin d'être figee dans le marbre des monuments antiques, cette histoire est constamment reinterpretee et enrichie par les avancees scientifiques recentes (de l'archeologie, de la climatologie, de l'epidemiologie, etc.) et par les contextes nouveaux dans lesquels evoluent les historiens et les historiennes. Ce petit ouvrage offre aux lecteurs curieux et aux etudiants une courte introduction à l'histoire de la civilisation romaine, qui fait la part belle aux sources anciennes, mais egalement aux decouvertes et aux etudes recentes menees dans le monde francophone et anglo-saxon.

Abstract

The Annals is a gripping account of the Roman emperors Tiberius, Claudius, and Nero and the brutality that marked their reigns. Tacitus deplores their depravity, proof of the corrupting force of absolute power. J.C. Yardley's vivid and accurate translation is complemented by a thorough introduction and notes.

Abstract

The name of Rome excites a picture of power and organisation, as do the widely-spread ruins that Roman civilization left behind. Yet Rome grew out of a collection of small villages and major developments such as the growth of Empire were unplanned and completely unprepared for.Influenced by a small number of self-interested aristocrats who lacked a broader vision, Rome was often threatened by their intrigues. Brought to the ground on a number of occasions, its leaders were able to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. How did Rome survive for nearly 1000 years, ruling over millions of people
