Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details a series of historical events and omens that occurred in ancient Rome, purportedly extracted from the work of Julius Obsequens, a historian who lived during the 4th century. The author presents a chronological catalog of natural disasters, military defeats, and the b…izarre celestial and earthly events that were interpreted as warnings and signs from the gods. These prodigies range from showers of blood and stones, to statues sweating blood, to ominous animal behavior. It draws a connection between these omens and the subsequent historical events, showing how they were perceived as divine messages foreshadowing the fate of battles, political turmoil, and the rise and fall of leaders. Through this lens, the book provides insights into the religious beliefs, superstitions, and cultural practices of ancient Rome, and offers a unique glimpse into their interpretation of the relationship between the natural world and human affairs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
