Enjoy The Private Life of the Romans.
The Private Life of the Romans
Joachim Marquardt is one of the most important German classical philologists of the 19th century. His classic, first published in 1879-82, is considered the standard academic work on Roman daily life in antiquity and its content is still not outdated. In it, he offers an informed account of all aspects of the private life of the ancient Romans, divided into two parts. The first part is dedicated to the family sphere with the chapters: family and marriage, children and education, slaves, house, daily life and burial. The second part, titled "Acquisition and Entertainment," teaches about economic life and clothing, housing and household furnishings (also from cultural and art-historical aspects), intellectual activity, entertainment, and games. Thanks to its understandable language and clear, systematic structure, it remains a valuable reference work to this day.
The author:
Joachim Marquardt
Joachim Marquardt (1812-1882) was a German high school teacher, classical philologist, and historian. From 1859 he was director of the Ernestinum Institute in Gotha, where in 1862 he also took over the management of the ducal collections and the Friedenstein Castle library.
For the Handbook of Roman Antiquities, he also wrote volumes on Roman state administration (1873-1878) and The Private Life of the Romans (in 2 volumes, 1879-1882).
Kai Brodersen (foreword)
Kai Brodersen has been a professor of ancient culture at the University of Erfurt and its president since 2008, until 2014.
