Story
Horror and the supernatural are the background of Bierce's short stories. His style is marked by vivid description, grim situations, and sardonic twists of fate. In terms of technique, he was far ahead of his time and his short stories are among the very best in American literature.

Story
La vida de Julio César, uno de los más grandes líderes de la historia, está repleta de conquistas, intrigas y poder. César no solo fue un orador carismático, un general formidable y un dictador poderoso, sino también un sumo sacerdote de un culto exótico, prisionero de piratas, seductor de Cleopatra y de las esposas de sus rivales políticos, y, en un momento, un rebelde condenado por su propio país. En este libro, se exploran todas las facetas de César: desde su juventud como fugitivo y prisionero, pasando por su ascenso como político y líder militar, hasta su asesinato.

Desde el siglo I, Roma se convierte en el líder político, económico y cultural de Occidente durante cuatro siglos. La influencia de su obra (inspirada sin duda en la helénica) fue decisiva para toda la historia posterior y debe ser tenida en cuenta no sólo en la Historia Antigua, sino también en la medieval e incluso en el Renacimiento europeo que se nutre, como veremos, de gran parte de sus hallazgos.

Hannibal Barca moved through the countryside burning, looting, and attracting recruits and supplies from disgruntled city residents and tribesmen. Cornelius Scipio remained with the forward Legions, taking any position available. It spoke well of his loyalty, but his actions hid a deeper secret. Cornelius feared the Scipio men would be accused of being cowards. Jace Kasia had no family but had a goal to be recognized as a Cretan archer. On the banks of Lake Trasimene, he earned the position of File Leader.

In almost every nativity scene today are shown three kings presenting gifts to the newborn baby Jesus, and though everyone is familiar with the three wise men, they are also some of the most mysterious characters from the Bible. According to scripture, they journeyed from an unnamed land to Bethlehem, bearing gifts for Jesus Christ, and then disappeared. They were the first Christian pilgrims, they later became the patron saints of travelers, and their image is on millions of Christmas cards.

Story
"La causa degli oppressi può difenderla soltanto uno che sia anche lui un oppresso". Pare che Lucio Sergio Catilina, di nascita nobile e dalla carriera torbida, temprato nella ferocia delle guerre civili, sia approdato a questa convinzione, proclamata in una riunione segreta di suoi seguaci, quando ormai si accingeva, nell’anno 63 a.C., all’ultima, celebre, perdente battaglia contro l’oligarchia. Infiltrati vi erano anche nella sua cerchia. Così, il servizio di spionaggio agli ordini del console a lui più avverso, Marco Tullio Cicerone, prontamente divulgò quel proclama, subito giudicato come una minaccia.

Caligula was one of the first rulers of the Roman Empire, and yet numbers among the most famous. His family history is mired in political scandals, tragedy, and murderous plots to forward the agendas of shadowy cabals that sought to oppose the nation in its early infancy. The full story of his life begins long before his birth, and his legacy continues long after his sensational murder at the hands of those closest to him.

Story
Volume Two begins with the accession of the Roman Emperor Valens in the year 364, a period which heralded vast movements of barbarian tribes from the north and east. The Huns move from the confines of Mongolia westward into Europe, pushing the German tribes in terror before them, who in turn move across the Rhine and Danube into Roman territory. The names of Goths, Franks, Lombards and Vandals will become part of the daily vocabulary. Gibbon describes in matchless style the dramatic events as the Western Roman Empire disintegrates under the pressure of Germanic invasion and internal corruption.

La storia di Roma è la somma di tante storie epiche e memorabili, gesti disperati, eroici, spregiudicati, di protagonisti disposti a tutto pur di affermare la propria ambizione, ma anche il dominio sul mondo di una città capace di superare le più atroci disfatte e le difficoltà più estreme. Gli episodi accertati storicamente non sono meno straordinari di quelli prodotti dal mito, i protagonisti non meno passionali degli dei che veneravano. Dalla cacciata dei re all'aggressione di Pirro, dalle Guerre puniche a quelle civili, da Cesare ad Augusto.

Story
Defined by borders both physical and conceptual, the Roman city stood apart as a concentration of life and activity that was legally, economically, and ritually divided from its rural surroundings. Death was a key area of control, and tombs were relegated outside city walls from the Republican period through Late Antiquity. Given this separation, an unexpected phenomenon marked the Augustan and early Imperial periods: Roman cities developed suburbs, built-up areas beyond their boundaries, where the living and the dead came together in densely urban environments.

Throughout the Roman Empire cities held public speeches and lectures, had libraries, and teachers and professors in the sciences and the humanities, some subsidized by the state. There even existed something equivalent to universities, and medical and engineering schools. What were they like? What did they teach? Who got to attend them? In the first treatment of this subject ever published, Dr. Richard Carrier answers all these questions and more.

Story
Claudius is particularly remembered for the conquest of Britain, as Roman power there had weakened since Julius Caesar had invaded nearly a century before. Beyond this, he established Roman colonies on the frontiers of the empire, annexed several territories in North Africa (including Thrace and Mauritania), and made Judea a province. Claudius’s rule stands out in other aspects as well. He paid great attention to Rome’s judicial system and religious policy, and the Empire’s infrastructure was improved during his reign.

Given how bad some of Rome's emperors were, it's a testament to just how insane and reviled Caligula was that he is still remembered nearly 2,000 years later as the epitome of everything that could be wrong with a tyrant. The Romans had high hopes for him after he succeeded Tiberius in 37 AD, and by all accounts he was a noble and just ruler during his first few months in power. But after that, he suffered some sort of mysterious illness that apparently rendered him insane.
