It's Not Over till the Emperor Sings
Professor Edith Hall uncovers the hidden origins of opera and ballet in the Colosseum. Imaging Rome Dr Catherine Edwards sees Rome through the eyes of eminent commentators such as Gibbon, Byron, Washington, Dickens and Freud. The Roman Joy of Sex
Dr Roy Gibson on Ovid and courtship. Roman Hollywood Film expert Maria Wyke dissects the love affair between Hollywood and Ancient Rome.
The Greatest Show on Earth A look at the day-to-day running of the Colosseum, such as how citizens obtained tickets, who sat where and how they caught enough lions and tigers to supply the games. Plus reconstructed Ancient Roman music and modern music that has been inspired by Rome and its spectacles.
