    • Das Schwert ist im alten Rom nicht nur das Erzeugnis einer hochentwickelten Technologie, sondern steht vor allem als Metapher imperialer Macht im Fokus. Vom Aufstieg Roms bis zum Aufstand der Völker im Norden und Osten des Reiches, die das Imperium Romanum schließlich in die Knie zwingen sollten, wird die Geschichte der Bewaffnung der römischen Soldaten nachgezeichnet. Simon James bietet so eine anregend neue Perspektive auf die römische Geschichte, indem er sie aus der Sicht der Legionäre und ihrer Aktionen beschreibt. In einer einzigartigen Verbindung von Militär- und Sozialgeschichte zeigt er, dass Roms Herrschaft letztlich auf der Grausamkeit seiner Soldaten und ihrer exzellenten Bewaffnung beruhte.
