2006172545Edhasa 2006. Tapa dura. 2ª Mano. Ensayo Historico . La de Salamina es sin duda la mayor batalla naval de la Antigüedad y también todo un ejemplo de estrategias y tácticas para la posteridad. Mientras los persas eran navegantes muy mediocres y su armada estaba compuesta por mercenarios y esclavos de muy diversa procedencia los griegos eran un pueblo que siempre había basado su economía en el mar y sus conocimientos de navegación no tenían punto de comparación posible. Este factor el patriotismo y el conocimiento del terreno resultaron de la mayor importancia para que la balanza de la victoria se inclinara hacia los griegos y evitar así la destrucción de este pueblo y esta cultura de la que somos herederos. De ahí la importancia que le da Barry Strauss al resultado de esta batalla. El lenguaje accesible la descripción minuciosa de los trirremes y de las tácticas de combate así como la reconstrucción de las biografías de algunos de los personajes que intervinieron en la batalla con especial atención a Artemisia quizá la primera mujer que capitaneó un barco de combate en la historia contribuyen a dar colorido y un atractivo a esta obra del que pocos ensayos pueden hacer gala.Un libro imprescindible para conocer la batalla de Salamina las tácticas de combate naval de la época las técnicas de navegación griegas o el modo de vida en los ejércitos persa y griego. ilustrado. . .

During these centuries Rome gained in splendor and territory then lost both. By the fourth century the time of Constantine the Roman Empire had changed so dramatically in geography ethnicity religion and culture that it would have been virtually unrecognizable to Augustus. Rome's legacy remains today in so many ways from language law and architecture to the seat of the Roman Catholic Church. Strauss examines this enduring heritage through the lives of the men who shaped it: Augustus Tiberius Nero Vespasian Trajan Hadrian Marcus Aurelius Septimius Severus Diocletian and Constantine. Over the ages they learned to maintain the family business--the government of an empire--by adapting when necessary and always persevering no matter the cost. Ten Caesars is a "captivating narrative that breathes new life into a host of transformative figures" Publishers Weekly. This "superb summation of four centuries of Roman history a masterpiece of compression confirms Barry Strauss as the foremost academic classicist writing for the general reader today" The Wall Street Journal.</p> Simon & Schuster Audio hardcover
