Course Description:

This course surveys ancient Roman History from the early Iron Age through the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in the fifth century CE. The emphasis is on the military, political, aesthetic and social forces that came into play at the various stages of this history. Given the decisive influence of this history on the American founders, we are especially interested in understanding the political transformation from republic to monarchy that took place over the period c. 100 BCE to c. 100 CE.
