Abstract

Ook in de klassieke oudheid bestond er al toerisme. Romeinen bewogen zich verveeld in een door slaven gedragen draagstoel langs het strand bij Capri, of lieten zich een flesje kitscherig reukwater aanreiken met een beeltenis van de Vesuvius erop gegraveerd. Soms doken ze in geitenleren badpakken in zee en peddelden wat door de branding. Ook de Grieken en Troje waren bij de Romeinen zeer in trek.

Abstract

Here is the monumental retelling of one of the most consequential chapters of human history: the fall of the Roman Empire. The Fate of Rome is the first book to examine the catastrophic role that climate change and infection diseases played in the collapse of Rome's power--a story of nature's triumph over human ambition, interweaving a grand historical narrative with cutting-edge climate science and genetic discoveries, Kyle Harper traces how the fate of Rome was decided not just by emperors, soldiers, and barbarians but also by volcanic eruptions, solar cycles, climate instability, and devastating viruses and bacteria. The fate of Rome is a sweeping account of how one of history's greatest civilizations encountered and endured, yet ultimately succumbed to, the cumulative burden of nature's violence.
