Description
Summary:The article is a review of a new textbook on the history of ancient Rome, written by a famous scientist, candidate of historical sciences V. O. Nikishin, senior lecturer at the Department of Ancient History at the History Faculty of Moscow State University. The history of Ancient Rome is the final stage of the ancient history of the Mediterranean. By the beginning of the new era, there was a powerful state that united within its borders the vast territories of the Eastern and Western Mediterranean - the Roman Empire, which absorbed the colossal cultural heritage of ancient Mediterranean civilizations. Ancient Roman society accumulated and synthesized in order to then transmit to the next generations the greatest achievements of ancient culture at the highest stage of its development, which explains the exceptional importance of Ancient Rome in world history. The author gives a fairly detailed analysis of the textbook, and comes to the conclusion that it is written just brilliantly, but needs to expand some sections.
