Bemerkung:

Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - The Roman emperor Hadrian, who lived from 76 to 138 AD, was a hugely influential figure whose architectural legacy is obvious even today. However, he was also contradictory and mysterious: he was a Spaniard who became emperor at Rome; he was a popular, successful soldier who aimed to be a man of peace. This biography explores these and other contradictions and complexities, and pieces together the picture of a man, his life, times and influence. It presents a rounded portrait written in a lively and accessible style. ISBN 9781849668866
