The Roman World introduces students to the society, literature and art of ancient Rome, through a study of its major historical and literary figures, such as Julius Caesar, Augustus, Nero, Virgil and Ovid. We shall look at Rome’s place in the ancient Mediterranean world, and its connections with ancient Greece and other cultures, such as Egypt and Gaul. Through almost constant warfare, Rome accumulated an enormous Mediterranean empire, and this subject will investigate how this shaped Roman culture, through such topics as the acquisition of slaves and the ability to import luxury objects. We shall also see how the civil conflicts of the first century BCE affected Rome and Roman identity, leading to Caesar, Pompey and others engaging in propaganda wars, as seen through competitive monumental building, and to some self-questioning in the literature of the period. Towards the end of the semester, we shall look at Rome’s lasting influence, and the way that we continue to represent Rome in book and film.

A simple question does not always beget a simple answer. Say, for example, the question “Should I stay or should I go?” – one that many international graduates ask themselves after coming to Germany to study or do their doctorate. Do they stay in Germany, a country where they’ve studied for several years or earned their doctoral degree, and start their career? Or do they return home and apply there what they have learned in Germany? In our podcast, “Should I Stay or Should I Go?”, we speak with three alums of Technische Universität Berlin about how they answered this question. They work in different fields, are from different countries, and speak about their reasons for their decisions, including practical issues like work permits and language skills. Host, writer and producer: Kevin Caners, EINS.STUDIO Editor: Philipp Eins, EINS.STUDIO Design cover: Nik Stohn On behalf of: Technische Universität Berlin’s Alumni Program Funded by: State Office for Development Cooperation at the Berlin Senate Department for Economics, Energy and Public Enterprises More information at: www.tu.berlin/communication/alumni
