Summary: Traditionally, the Romans have been understood in a straightforward way but the period really comes alive if you take an unexpected approach to its history. Yes, emperors, the development of civilisation and armies all have a fascinating history? but so too do tattoos, collecting, fattening, recycling, walking, poison, fish, inkwells and wicked stepmothers!
