HISTORY 422 ANCIENT ROME The people of
ancient Rome
established one of the most
successful
societies of all time. In many ways, their society
was very much like
our
own, with many of the same strengths and many of the
same problems.
This
course will include a survey of Roman history from
the time of the
Roman
monarchy through the reign of Constantine. It will
include also a
discussion
of many of the greatest works of Latin
literature, including
the
histories
of Tacitus, Suetonius, and Sallust, the plays of
Plautus, and the poems
of Catullus, Ovid, Virgil, and Horace.
