Description: Author Peter Jones, former professor of Classics at Cambridge, has penned this book that is as entertaining as it is illuminating. How did Romans look at death? What was the attitude toward mortality in the Roman world? In a world without hygiene, 50 percent of children were dead before they reached the age of 5, resulting in a society where half the population was teenagers. With perspectives from the elite to the epitaphs of plebs, this comprehensive book is all you could want. 2018 Hardcover in Excellent Condition. Ships Quickly. Combined Shipping is Available.
