Mary Beard's Ultimate Rome: Empire Without Limit
Season 1 Episode 3 of 4
Scholar Mary Beard takes an in-depth look at identity and citizenship within the Roman Empire, including what it meant to be, or become, Roman, and how the different parts of the Empire reacted to Roman rule. She follows the story of an African Roman from his native land to Britain, where he served as a governor, and in York and Newcastle she finds the remains of Romans, but not as one might imagine
Mary Beard's Ultimate Rome: Empire Without Limit airs on BBC Four HD at 10:00 PM, Monday 25 November. (Subtitles, audio description.)
