Jerry Toner. A Grand Tour of the Roman Empire
Голямата обиколка на Римската империя
Category: Ancient Rome

Language: Bulgarian

 

   Tour the Roman Empire at its height with Marcus Sidonius Falx and his amanuensis, Dr Jerry Toner. Travelling east, Falx explores the great cultural centre of Athens before trekking into rural Asia (or Turkey as we know it), past the already ancient Luxor monuments in Roman Egypt, and by the Great Library of Alexandria. Travelling west across the breadbasket of the Empire, he journeys through Gaul (France) before crossing to Britannia, where he suffers the worst that provincial life has to offer. Falx provides practical advice on surviving all things travel: from pirates and shipwrecks to bedbugs and lousy food. Even the most sedentary reader will feel they have experienced life in the Empire first-hand.
   Dr Jerry Toner is Fellow and Director of Studies in Classics, Churchill College, Cambridge University. He is the author of How to Manage Your Slaves and Release your Inner Roman, which were published under his pseudonym Marcus Sidonius Falx.
