Produktinformationen "Britain and Boudicca"
In the first century AD, Boudicca, a noblewoman of royal lineage, lived and died. Through her marriage, she became the queen of the British Iceni tribe. This remarkable figure is remembered for her near-success in espelling the formidable presence of the Roman Empire from the British Isles. Although she ultimately did not achieve this goal, she has evolved into a significant symbol of British identity since the Renaissance. The book begins by outlining the formation of Britain as an island and the various peoples who inhabited it during the Iron Age and Roman period. It also discusses Julius Caesar's attempts to establish a foothold in the region. But it was not until about a century later that Emperor Claudius and his successors successfully conquered Britain, a time during which Boudicca's life unfolded. Utilizing ancient and later sources, along with the author's insights and numerous unique illustrations, this non-fiction work effectively conveys its content.
