Augustan Age

This work by Werner Eck, a highly respected scholar in the field of Ancient History and Epigraphy, is extremely important because it presents a different portrait of Augustus from the known one. Instead of painting a romanticized image of Augustus, the author, as an academician with extensive knowledge of the Roman world and sufficient experience and source information on the subject, constructed a highly realistic and consistent portrait of Augustus in his work. In this regard, the book in our hands is of unique value for academics, students, and readers interested in the subject who desire to read a realistic portrait of Augustus.
