BREAD AND CIRCUSES (PART 2)

This podcast is the second of two that give some information about 'Bread and Circuses' at Rome. In Part 2 we talk about what happened during the shows, with a focus on gladiators, beast hunts, and chariot racing. The text is taken from S. Kershaw, A Brief Guide to Classical Civilization, London: Robinson, 2010, pp. 335-340, and is read by the author. http://www.constablerobinson.com/?section=search&search_term=civilization
