The sword is not only in ancient Rome a product of a highly developed technology, but is it primarily seen as a metaphor for imperial power.

Simon James offers an new exciting perspective on roman history, by taking the perspective of the legionnaire. In a unique combination of military and social history he shows that rome's rule was based on the cruelty of his soldiers and their excellent armament.

This is the BBC
In the hundredth year of the British Broadcasting Corporation, historian Simon J. Potter looks back over the hundred year history, asking if the BBC is really the 'voice of Britain', and what comes next for British public broadcasting. 2022 marks the centenary year of the British Broadcasting Corporation. As Britain's most famous and influential broadcaster, the BBC faces a range of significant challenges to the way it operates, and perhaps to its existence, from the government but also from a rapidly changing media environment. Historian Simon J. Potter explores the hundred year history of this corporation, drawing out the roots of these challenges and understanding how similar threats - hostile politicians and prime ministers, the advent of television - were met and overcome in the past. Potter poses the question 'Is the BBC the voice of Britain?', exploring its role in changing wider culture and society.
