Historie

This bundle of books brings the ancient world of Rome to life by immersing readers in the everyday experiences of its people. Far from the battles and politics that dominate history books, this volume explores how Roman citizens spent their days—from bustling markets in the forum to quiet evenings with family in modest insula apartments or rural villas. Readers will gain insight into the structure of Roman homes, the diet of the average citizen, and the significance of clothing, hygiene, and household roles in shaping Roman identity.

The second part of the book focuses on work and social structure. Whether farmers in the countryside, artisans in the city, or traders in the empire’s vast markets, Romans occupied a wide range of roles. The influence of slaves, apprenticeships, and labor guilds is discussed alongside the rising middle class and their contributions to the Roman economy. Readers will also learn about education for boys and girls, how marriage and divorce functioned, and the importance of public spaces like bathhouses, theaters, and circuses in daily life.

The final section explores Roman religious life—both public and private. From ancestor worship at household shrines to elaborate temple ceremonies for gods like Jupiter, Venus, and Mars, religion permeated every aspect of Roman existence. This section also covers omens, superstitions, and the Roman calendar of festivals that blended spirituality with community. Daily Roman Life presents a vivid portrait of a complex, vibrant society—reminding us that behind every empire are the lives of ordinary people who cooked, prayed, worked, and dreamed.
