Political disintegration is a persistent feature of world history. The Collapse of Complex Societies, though written by an archaeologist, will therefore strike a chord throughout the social sciences. Any explanation of societal collapse carries lessons not just for the study of ancient societies, but for the members of all such societies in both the present and future.

"La causa degli oppressi può difenderla soltanto uno che sia anche lui un oppresso". Pare che Lucio Sergio Catilina, di nascita nobile e dalla carriera torbida, temprato nella ferocia delle guerre civili, sia approdato a questa convinzione, proclamata in una riunione segreta di suoi seguaci, quando ormai si accingeva, nell’anno 63 a.C., all’ultima, celebre, perdente battaglia contro l’oligarchia. Infiltrati vi erano anche nella sua cerchia. Così, il servizio di spionaggio agli ordini del console a lui più avverso, Marco Tullio Cicerone, prontamente divulgò quel proclama, subito giudicato come una minaccia.

In this book, renowned rhetorical scholar Robin Reames argues that, in today's polarized political climate, we should all care deeply about learning rhetoric. Drawing on examples ranging from the destructive ancient Greek demagogue Alcibiades to modern-day conspiracists like Alex Jones, Reames breaks down the major techniques of rhetoric, pulling back the curtain on how politicians, journalists, and "journalists" convince us to believe what we believe—and to talk, vote, and act accordingly.

Henry Mulford Tichenor (1858 - 1922) was a writer and journalist, who was a very active free thinker in the early Twentieth Century. A special target of Tichenor was organized religion, which he viewed as an absurdly contrived cultural artefact. In The Olympian Gods he applies a critical scalpel to the religion of the ancient Greeks, which he regarded as an obvious precursor to Christianity.

The ancient world was full of many fantastic cities and places, and like today’s major cities, the great ancient cities were hubs of trade, religion, and science. Writing was first invented in ancient cities, and many important scientific discoveries were also made in them, some of which are still used in the modern world. Among the many cities of the ancient world, Rome and Athens may come to mind first, but the city of Babylon in the land of Mesopotamia was already an ancient, venerated city when the others were still inconsequential settlements.

Democrazia: un'idea straordinariamente duttile che ha plasmato il corso della storia europea, dalla Rivoluzione inglese a quella francese, dalla Prima guerra mondiale fino alla guerra fredda e al crollo del Muro. Ripercorrendo le ideologie che l'hanno nutrita e sostenuta, Canfora formula la sua tesi: il meccanismo elettorale è ben lungi dal rappresentare la democrazia. Oggi, nel mondo ricco, ha vinto la libertà, con tutte le sue immani conseguenze. La democrazia è rinviata ad altre epoche.

Many ancient civilizations have influenced and inspired people in the 21st century. The Greeks and Romans continue to fascinate the West today. But of all the world’s civilizations, none have intrigued people more than the Mayans, whose culture, astronomy, language, and mysterious disappearance all continue to captivate people. In 2012 especially, there has been a renewed focus on the Mayans, whose calendar has led many to speculate the world will end on the same date the Mayan calendar ends. The focus on the “doomsday” scenario, however, has overshadowed the Mayans’ true contribution.

From emperors to empresses, poets to prostitutes, slaves to plebs, ancient Rome was a wealth of different experiences and expectations-nowhere more so than around the subject of sex and sexuality. The image of ancient Rome that has come down to us is one of sexual excess: emperors gripped by perversion partaking in pleasure with whomever and whatever they fancied during weeklong orgies.

Bringing together today's leading scholars, both established seniors and younger, cutting-edge academics, Stefan Brink and Neil Price have constructed the first single work to gather innovative research from a spectrum of disciplines (including archaeology, history, philology, comparative religion, numismatics, and cultural geography) to create the most comprehensive Viking Age book of its kind ever attempted.
