Summary

English summary: How did a Roman emperor start his day? What were the daily duties of a man who ruled over an entire empire? And how did one even become emperor? Michael Sommer answers these questions and provides a glimpse behind the scenes of the activities of power in ancient Rome. Roman rulers, the protagonists of history who have so far been presented as rather abstract characters, are now portrayed as people through their everyday activities. In addition to daily political actions, relationships, leadership practices, huge construction projects, and life during military campaigns are discussed. Differences and characteristics of each emperor's personality, governmental priorities, as well as development and change throughout the long history of the Roman Empire from Augustus to the fall of the empire become clear. This is a perfect introduction to Roman history. German text. German description: Herrscher - Feldherr - Priester: Aus dem Alltag der romischen Kaiser Wie begann ein romischer Kaiser seinen Tag? Was waren die taglichen Aufgaben eines Mannes, der uber ein ganzes Imperium herrschte? Und: Wie wurde man uberhaupt Kaiser? Michael Sommer beantwortet diese Fragen und gewahrt auf diese Weise Blicke hinter die Kulissen des Machtgeschehens im alten Rom. Romische Herrscher, Protagonisten der Geschichte und bislang eher abstrakt dargestellt, werden zu Menschen im taglichen Geschehen. Neben dem politischen Tagesgeschaft werden auch Beziehungen, Herrschaftspraxis, gewaltige Bauprojekte und das Leben wahrend der Feldzuge thematisiert. Unterschiede und Besonderheiten der einzelnen Kaiserpersonlichkeiten, Regierungsschwerpunkte sowie die Entwicklungen und Veranderungen in der langen Geschichte des Romischen Reiches von Augustus bis zum Untergang des Imperiums werden verstandlich. - Perfekte Einstiegslekture in die romische Geschichte - Uberblicksartig und leicht verstandlich - der Alltag romischer Kaiser - Historische Entwicklung der Romischen Kaiserzeit im Spiegel der Regierenden. Dr. Michael Sommer lehrt Alte Geschichte an der University of Liverpool. Einer seiner Forschungsschwerpunkte ist die Wirtschafts-, Sozial- und Mentalitatsgeschichte der romischen Kaiserzeit, insbesondere des 3. Jahrhunderts n. Chr.
