With the recent success of "Rome" on BBC2, no one will look at the private lives of the Roman Emperors again in the same light. Anthony Blond's scandalous expose of the life of the Caesars is a must-read for all interested in what really went on in ancient Rome. Julius Caesar is usually presented as a glorious general when in fact he was an arrogant charmer and a swank; Augustus was so conscious of his height that he put lifts in his sandals. But they were nothing compared to Caligula, Claudius and Nero. This book is fascinating reading, eye-opening in its revelations and effortlessly entertaining.
William Shakespeare.Much Ado About Nothing (Английский клуб)
Комедия великого английского драматурга Уильяма Шекспира "Много шума из ничего" - это удивительная сказка, в которой, как в жизни, соединились драматические коллизии и смешные ситуации, любовь и ненависть, обман и верность, чванливость и благородство, где царят запоминающиеся яркие персонажи и звучат остроты и каламбуры. Для облегчения понимания текста дается лексико-грамматический комментарий, перевод трудных слов и упражнения на понимание и развитие устной речи. Книга рассчитана на учащихся школ, гимназий, лицеев, а также на широкий круг лиц, изучающих английский язык самостоятельно.
