What if you could approach challenges not as roadblocks, but as territories waiting to be claimed? Imagine possessing the strategic brilliance of Alexander the Great, the unwavering resolve that carved empires, and the influential charisma of Cleopatra that commanded attention and loyalty, the persistence and genius of Ghengis Khan. In a world demanding resilience, vision, and bold action, the timeless principles of history's most formidable leaders are more relevant than ever.

In The Buried City, Gabriel Zuchtriegel takes us on a behind-the-scenes tour of Pompeii and reveals new archaeological finds that are being unearthed at the site’s biggest dig in a generation. As director of the Pompeii Archaeological Park, Zuchtriegel presents a uniquely intimate perspective on this city that was tragically destroyed and frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE. Among the ruins, we find unmade beds, dishes left drying, and bodies of victims encased in ash, but Zuchtriegel shows that we’ve only begun to understand this fascinating place.

With new evidence and meticulous research, Dr. James Lacey weaves a majestic and accurate description of who Jesus was.

Rhiannon Garth-Jones explores Rome's enduring legacy through three core themes: religion, empire, and culture. Each chapter examines how Rome’s history, governance, and mythology have been reimagined throughout centuries, and how these interpretations continue to shape our modern world.

In this book, I offer a persuasive historical explanation of why Paul did not explicitly condemn the institution of Roman slavery and why Paul did not urge that freedom be granted to all Roman slaves. In an earlier book, I showed that the Stoic philosopher Seneca did not condemn Roman slavery or call for emancipation because Seneca accepted the absolute political authority of the Emperor Nero as the de facto political slave master of the Roman world, despite Seneca's emphasis on the human dignity of the slave. In the same way, Paul's acceptance of Nero's absolute authority as the political ...

Nero as the political slave master of the Roman world wielded absolute power over all his subjects, including the Stoic philosopher Seneca. This absolute political power decisively influenced how Seneca adapted his humane view of Roman slaves to the institution of household slavery. Seneca, who was also Nero's advisor, fashioned an ideology of clemency or mercy to influence how Nero the political slave master treated his subjects and how the Roman household slave master treated his slaves. Contrary to common assumptions among scholars, I emphasize that the political loyalty of Seneca to the...

En Sobre la Amistad, el gran orador y filósofo romano Marco Tulio Cicerón no solo reflexiona sobre la importancia de la amistad en la vida humana, sino que ofrece principios atemporales para construir relaciones profundas, honestas y duraderas.
