Il giorno dopo il Grande incendio, Roma offre uno spettacolo di desolazione e distruzione. Tutto è irriconoscibile: gli edifici collassati sono diventati grandi ammassi di macerie, le strade e i vicoli ora sono degli avvallamenti, mentre nell’aria aleggia un acre odore di bruciato. Molti hanno perso tutto ciò che avevano e i campi per gli sfollati diventano la loro unica casa. Tutti guardano all’imperatore per ripartire, aspettano la sua guida per andare verso il futuro. Ma lui non è né un conquistatore di terre come Cesare, né un costruttore di imperi come Augusto.

Rzym, lata czterdzieste I w. Wespazjan wraca do Rzymu z nadzieją, że wraz ze śmiercią cesarza Tyberiusza skończy się szaleńcze rozpasanie, a cesarstwo podźwignie się z kryzysu. Tymczasem kolejny władca, Kaligula, na jego oczach przeistacza się w szaleńca. Jednak ekstrawaganckie projekty budowlane, niekończące się igrzyska, ostentacyjność kazirodczego związku z siostrą Druzyllą są niczym w porównaniu z najbardziej szalonym pomysłem Kaliguli - cesarz zamierza przerzucić most przez Zatokę Neapolitańską i przejechać nim w zbroi Aleksandra Wielkiego.

En su reinado, Claudio demostró ser un líder astuto y eficaz, introduciendo reformas significativas, expandiendo el imperio con la conquista de Britania y fortaleciendo la administración imperial.

Es war eine der schwerwiegendsten Konsequenzen des römischen Bürgerkrieges, dass mit der legitimen Republik zugleich ihre treueste Verbündete, die Stadt Massalia, politisch vernichtet, aus einem mit herrschenden Staat umgewandelt ward in eine auch ferner reichsfreie und griechische, aber ihre Selbständigkeit und ihren Hellenismus in den bescheidenen Verhältnissen einer provinzialen Mittelstadt bewahrende Gemeinde.

One of the masterpieces of classical literature, the "Histories" describes how a small and quarrelsome band of Greek city states united to repel the might of the Persian empire. But while this epic struggle forms the core of his work, Herodotus' natural curiosity frequently gives rise to colorful digressions - a description of the natural wonders of Egypt; an account of European lake-dwellers; and far-fetched accounts of dog-headed men and gold-digging ants. With its kaleidoscopic blend of fact and legend, the "Histories" offers a compelling Greek view of the world of the fifth century BC.
