Popular in its day both as a sourcebook for writers and orators and
as a guidebook for living a moral life, this remarkably rich
document serves as an engaging introduction to the cultural and
moral history of ancient Rome. Valerius' "thousand tales" are
arranged thematically in ninety-one chapters that cover nearly
every aspect of life in the ancient world, including such
wide-ranging topics as military discipline, child rearing, and
women lawyers. As a whole, the work gives the reader fascinating
insights into what it felt like to be an ancient Roman, what the
ancient Romans really believed, what their private world was like,
how they related to one another, and what they did when nobody was
watching.
