The Age Of Augustus by Werner Eck
An accessible scholarly overview of the transformative reign that reshaped Rome from republic to empire. It examines the consolidation of power through constitutional settlements and the creation of an imperial administration, along with military reforms, provincial governance, and urban renewal. Drawing on epigraphic and archaeological evidence, it explores ideology, public image, religion, and cultural production as instruments of authority, and assesses social and economic impacts on Rome and the provinces. The study concludes by evaluating succession arrangements and the enduring legacy of the new imperial order.
