This book, like the volume on "Society and Politics in Ancient
Rome," deals with the life of the common people, with their
language and literature, their occupations and amusements, and with
their social, political, and economic conditions. We are interested
in the common people of Rome because they made the Roman Empire
what it was. They carried the Roman standards to the Euphrates and
the Atlantic; they lived abroad as traders, farmers, and soldiers
to hold and Romanize the provinces, or they stayed at home, working
as carpenters, masons, or bakers, to supply the daily needs of the
capital. The other side of the subject which has engaged the
attention of the author in studying these topics has been the many
points of similarity which arise between ancient and modern
conditions, and between the problems which the Roman faced and
those which confront us.
The book is aimed at the general reader, as well as to the special
student of Roman life and literature. It includes articles which
discuss social, political and literary questions, with the majority
of which are in some measure comparative studies of certain phases
of life at Rome and in modern contemporary life.
