Mary Beard: The Twelve Caesars, Part 6

Mary Beard, Cambridge University. This six-part lecture series examines the continuing engagement throughout history with images of Roman emperors and its impact on Western visual art and culture.
In this sixth and final lecture of the series, originally delivered at the National Gallery of Art on May 8, 2011, the esteemed classicist and professor Mary Beard summarizes the complexity of the reception of images of Roman imperial life and power as they have been altered, combined, redefined, and proliferated in all media.

Mary Beards talent is showing us how The Romans saw themselves! Instead of our own overlapping modern view. Thats a true historian!

A Wonderfully engaging and informative series of lectures. Mary Beards’ current book ‘Twelve Caesars’ published in September 2021 is also a fascinating read. 🙏📚🌻🇬🇧🙏

Highly entertaining and informative. Even if we were taken down a couple of cul de sacs.

I used to like her, but she doubts and dismiss everything ...and do not offer her own answers and solutions ( I did listen all 6 lectures)
