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.

Author and historian Tom Holland returns to his roots in Roman history and the audience he cultivated with Rubicon—his masterful, witty, brilliantly researched popular history of the fall of the Roman republic—with Dynasty, a luridly fascinating history of the reign of the first five Roman emperors. Dynasty continues Rubicon's story, opening where that book ended: with the murder of Julius Caesar. This is the period of the first and perhaps greatest Roman emperors. It's a colorful story of rule and ruination, from the rise of Augustus to the death of Nero.

La storia di Roma comincia con uno stupro: è dalla violenza di Marte, dio della guerra, su una giovane vestale, che nascono Romolo e Remo, i fondatori della città. Raccolti e allattati da una lupa, macchiati dall'infamia del fratricidio, i due gemelli iniettano nel corpo dell'impero più grandioso della storia la natura doppia delle loro origini divine e bestiali: grazia e violenza, sensualità e ferocia plasmano un popolo di poeti sublimi, guerrieri sanguinari e condottieri rapiti dalla vertigine del potere.

L'inimicizia, il sospetto, la rivalità tra Occidente e Oriente sono argomenti antichi, se si pensa che è proprio per indagare le sotterranee radici storiche di questa animosità che Erodoto compose le sue Storie, nel v secolo a.C. Eternate nell'opera dello storico di Alicarnasso - e in seguito nelle cronache ellenistiche, romane, medievali, per tacere delle molteplici rielaborazioni letterarie e filmiche -, le figure e le vicende delle Guerre persiane sono saldamente inscritte nell'immaginario occidentale.

Di tutte le civiltà che esistevano nell'anno Mille, quella dell'Europa occidentale sembrava la peggior candidata per un futuro radioso. Paragonati agli imperi scintillanti di Bisanzio o dell'Islam, i regni frammentati affacciati sull'Atlantico sembravano poveri, impauriti e poco sviluppati. Ma l'anarchia di quegli anni non era il presagio per la fine del mondo, ma la fucina di un ordine radicalmente diverso.

10 gennaio, anno 705 dalla fondazione di Roma anno 49 prima della nascita di Cristo. I legionari attendono l'ordine di Caio Giulio Cesare celati nell'oscurità, sulle sponde di un fiumiciattolo che segna la frontiera tra il territorio romano e le Gallie. Varcare quel confine in armi significa dichiararsi nemici dell'Urbe, dare inizio alla guerra civile.
