From the publisher

Roland Auguet examines the Roman taste for blood and considers what the games, that strange combination of Cruelty and Civilization , reveal about the Roman mentality. He shows how the great spectacles became a part of city life - they were awaited with impatience, everyone discussed them, some applauded the action in the arena, while others booed frantically.
