Story
Before any type of unified political entity named Israel existed, the Jewish groups whose descendants would later form Israel identified themselves by their particular tribe. If asked their nationality or country of origin, they would likely identify themselves as Danites (from the tribe of Dan; Ex. 31:6) or Ephraimites (from the tribe of Ephraim; Judg. 12:5), etc.

Story
Mary Beard braque les projecteurs sur les hommes qui ont gouverné l’Empire romain, de Jules César (assassiné en 44 avant notre ère) à Alexandre Sévère (assassiné en 235 de notre ère). Qui étaient réellement les empereurs de Rome ? De cruels maniaques du contrôle, des bourreaux de travail, des adolescents excentriques. Ce livre n’offre pas une galerie chronologique de portraits : Caligula le fou, Néron le monstre, Marc Aurèle le philosophe... L’autrice pose des questions autrement importantes pour une plongée sans pareille dans la Rome impériale : quel pouvoir les empereurs détenaient-ils réellement ?

In his lifetime, Mark Antony was a famous man. Ally and avenger of Julius Caesar, rhetorical target of Cicero, lover of Cleopatra, and mortal enemy of Octavian (the future emperor Augustus), Antony played a leading role in the transformation of the Roman world. Ever since his and Cleopatra's demise at the hands of Octavian, he has remained famous, or infamous, a figure of recurring fascination. A Noble Ruin delivers a complex and captivating portrait of Mark Antony that offers a fresh perspective on the fall of the Roman Republic.

But it was also a battle whose legacy and lessons have often been misunderstood—perhaps, now more than ever, at our own peril.

The final dynasty of pharaonic Egypt was born with the death of one of the most famous men in the ancient world – Alexander the Great – and died with the dramatic suicide of one of antiquity’s most famous women – Cleopatra. The Ptolemies ruled over Egypt for almost three hundred years and ushered in the final period of Egyptian greatness by establishing the most powerful empire in the eastern Mediterranean. But they were Greek, not Egyptian, and attempted to justify their rule by merging Greek and Egyptian culture and embracing pharaonic traditions.
