Book Summary
About the Book: In Romes Long Shadow
Julius Caesar, Lucretia, Cincinnatus, Augustus, the Gracchi brothers: Roman
figures have had an extraordinary influence on modern republics from America to
France. Here historian Jamie Gianoutsos traces the Roman republic and its
afterlives through the revolutionary birth of modern republics in the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries to reveal how ancient ideas of liberty,
virtue, and corruption shaped the political imagination of a new age.
Moving from stories of tyranny and collapse in ancient Rome to moments of
crisis in early modern Europe and the Atlantic world, Gianoutsos uncovers
recurring patterns in the rise and fall of republics.
