Abacus Gladius. Living, Fighting and Dying in the Roman Army De la Bedoyere Guy

The Roman Republic was the most remarkable state in history. What began as a small community of peasants camped among marshes and hills ended up ruling the known world. Rubicon paints a vivid portrait of the Republic at the climax of its greatness - the same greatness which would herald the catastrophe of its fall • It is a story of incomparable drama. This was the century of Julius Caesar, the gambler whose addiction to glory led him to the banks of the Rubicon and beyond; of Cicero, whose defence of freedom would make him a byword for eloquence; of Spartacus, the slave who dared to challenge a superpower; of Cleopatra, the queen who did the same • Tom Holland brings to life this strange and unsettling civilisation, with its extremes of ambition and self-sacrifice, bloodshed and desire

The Digital Republic is the definitive guide to the great political question of our time: how can freedom and democracy survive in a world of powerful digital technologies? • Not long ago, the tech industry was widely admired and the internet was regarded as a tonic for freedom and democracy. Not anymore. Every day, the headlines blaze with reports of racist algorithms, data leaks, and social media platforms festering with falsehood and hate. In The Digital Republic, acclaimed author Jamie Susskind argues that these problems are not the fault of a few bad apples at the top of the industry. They are the result of our failure to govern technology properly, a failure derived from decades of muddled ideas and wishful thinking • The Digital Republic charts a new course, with new legal standards, new public bodies and institutions, new duties on platforms, new rights and regulators, and new codes of conduct for people in the tech industry

Edward Gibbon's six-volume History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (1776-88) is among the most magnificent and ambitious narratives in European literature. Its subject is the fate of one of the world's greatest civilizations over thirteen centuries - its rulers, wars and society, and the events that led to its disastrous collapse. Here, in volumes one and two, Gibbon charts the vast extent and constitution of the Empire from the reign of Augustus to 395 ad. And in a controversial critique, he examines the early Church, with fascinating accounts of the first Christian and last pagan emperors, Constantine and Julian

Hailed as Newby's 'masterpiece', Love and War in the Apennines is the gripping real-life story of Newby's imprisonment and escape from an Italian prison camp during World War II • After the Italian Armistice of 1943, Eric Newby escaped from the prison camp in which he'd been held for a year. He evaded the German army by hiding in the caves and forests of Fontanellato, in Italy's Po Valley. Against this picturesque backdrop, he was sheltered for three months by an informal network of Italian peasants, who fed, supported and nursed him, before his eventual recapture • ‘Love and War in the Apennines’ is Newby's tribute to the selfless and courageous people who were to be his saviours and companions during this troubled time and of their bleak and unchanging way of life

"Закат и падение Римской империи" Гиббона, опубликованный между 1776 и 1788 годами, является бесспорным шедевром английской исторической литературы, который может погибнуть только вместе с самим языком. Сама по себе ее длина является показателем ее монументального качества: семьдесят одна глава, из которых двадцать восемь полностью представлены в этом издании • С неподражаемым стилем, научными фактами и остроумием Гиббон знакомит читателя с историей Европы со второго века нашей эры до падения Константинополя в 1453 году - увлекательный рассказ "величайшего из историков эпохи Просвещения" • Книга на английском языке • Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, published between 1776 and 1788, is the undisputed masterpiece of English historical writing which can only perish with the language itself

В последние дни апреля 1945 года на Берлин обрушилась страшная буря. Охваченный неудержимой силой Востока и Запада, разрывные снаряды били по зданиям, а жители некогда славного города укрывались в темных подвалах - как и их фюрер в своем бункере. Битва за Берлин стала ключевым моментом в истории: ознаменовав конец смертоносного режима, поверженный город был разорван на две части соперничающими сверхдержавами холодной войны • В книге Berlin. Life and Loss in the City That Shaped the Century историк Синклер Маккей, ставший бестселлером, опираясь на никогда ранее не публиковавшиеся свидетельства первых лиц, рисует картину города, опустошенного идеологией, войной и горем. Однако, чтобы полностью понять падение Берлина, необходимо подробно изучить предшествующие годы и проследить, как город отстраивался заново, как два города, в последующий период

In the frontier town of Springfield in 1651, peculiar things begin to happen. Precious food spoils, livestock ails and property vanishes. People suffer fits and are plagued by strange visions and dreams. Children sicken and die. As tensions rise, rumours spread of witches and heretics, and the community becomes tangled in a web of spite, distrust and denunciation. The finger of suspicion falls on a young couple struggling to make a home and feed their children: Hugh Parsons the irascible brickmaker and his troubled wife, Mary. It will be their downfall • The Ruin of All Witches tells the dark, real-life folktale of witch-hunting in a remote Massachusetts plantation. These were the turbulent beginnings of colonial America, when English settlers' dreams of love and liberty, of founding a 'city on a hill', gave way to paranoia and terror, enmity and rage
