AD 79: Year of Vesuvius

Di: Bruce Ware Allen
  • Riassunto

  • In AD 79, Italy's mount Vesuvius erupted, covering Pompeii and Herculaneum in hot ash and lava. This was not, however, the only important event of that year. One emperor died, another succeeded, farmers farmed, politicians plotted, lawyers advocated, businessmen cut deals, life went on. In this podcast, we will follow seasons of a typical year at the height of Rome's power from the perspectives of people high and low.
