Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Biographical sketches of the 'five good' Roman emperors: Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius, and Marcus Aurelius, as well as the 'bad emperor' Commodus. These short biographies are followed by an allegorical exercise in the form of imaginary letters from emperor to emperor that reveal a progression in their characters that parallels the moral development of a single individual. To simplify: from shrewdness (Nerva) to activity (Trajan) to knowledge (Hadrian) to virtue (Antoninus Pius) to wisdom (Marcus Aurelius).How could Marcus Aurelius' son Commodus (the bad guy in 'Gladiator' and 'Fall of the Roman Empire') surpass his excellent predecessors According to history, he didn't. He broke the string of good emperors and his reign began an unrelenting decline in the Empire. However, he certainly tried to outdo all previous rulers - by attaining god-consciousness. He proclaimed himself to be the reincarnation of Hercules and the 'son of God'.This book is not a serious reappraisal of Commodus, but it may give a greater understanding of his aspirations in light of his predecessors and his father's values and advice (as shown in selected passages from the famous 'Meditations').By the author of 'Great Women of Imperial Rome', 'Roman Empresses', 'Bulla Felix: The Roman Robin Hood', and 'Vipsania: A Roman Odyssey'.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Less than a year and a half before her death, a young woman from Virginia - a great (x3) niece of Thomas Jefferson - took ship in New York City for an extended tour of Jamaica. What she found there was exotic to her - the plants, the topography, the customs - not least the equality of races, which was still far in the future in her homeland. Martha was a teacher and published poet, and her journal and letters home are vivid, humorous, and often moving. She traveled in grand style in a four-in-hand carriage, visiting Kingston and Spanish Town in the south, Black River and Savannah La Mar in the west, and Lucea, Montego Bay, and Falmouth in the north. At Black River, she had her first ever experience of the seashore. She also visited some of the large sugar plantations that still flourished on the island. Martha endured several close calls on precipitous mountain roads and an ongoing struggle with a bad-tempered, unwanted suitor, the son of her hostess. Martha Jefferson Trice died unmarried at the age of 24 in 1880, but she lives on through her writings. This book includes a brief biography by her great (x2) nephew, Jasper Burns.…
