Half a century before the dawn of Christianity, Rome has become the wealthiest city in the world, a cosmopolitan metropolis of one million people — epicenter of a sprawling empire. Founded on principles of shared power and fierce personal competition, the Republic was created to prevent any one man from seizing absolute control. It is a society where soldiers can rise up from provincial commoners to become national heroes, even leaders of the Republic. 

公元前52年,罗马共和国建立400年后,罗马已经成为世界上最富有的城市,是拥有100万人口的世界性大都市,也是雏形中的帝国的中心。罗马共和国是建立在分享权利和激烈的个人竞争的基础上的,从来不允许搞个人独裁。

But as the ruling class became extravagantly wealthy, the foundations have crumbled, eaten away by corruption and excess, and the old values of Spartan discipline and social unity have given way to a great chasm between the classes. 

但这些共和国的原则基石正在腐败的弥漫和道德的沦丧下逐渐崩溃。统治阶级穷奢极欲、挥霍无度,传统的斯巴达人的戒律和团结已经荡然无存。阶级矛盾恶化,法律和行政体系日渐削弱,权力逐渐被控制在军方手中。

A richly layered look at history and the building of an empire, 'Rome' sets the stage for modern politics — infighting, corruption, party lines and the struggle to define collective values. "Human nature never changes," says creator Bruno Heller. "We see the same problems today — crime, unemployment, disease, and the struggle for social mobility and the pressure to preserve your place in a precarious society." 

"你将在屏幕上看到一个最详尽复杂和多姿多彩的古罗马,”联合制作人、执行导演及编剧Bruno Heller说,“人性永远不会改变”,我们如今的社会也存在同样的问题:犯罪、失业、疾病和保持社会地位的压力。如果你很聪明的话,还有向上攀附的潜力。”

An intimate drama of love and betrayal, masters and slaves, and husbands and wives, 'Rome' chronicles the epic times that saw the fall of a Republic and the creation of an empire. 

爱与背叛、统治者与奴隶、丈夫与妻子的摄人内心的电视剧,也是一部再现共和国衰落和帝国兴起的多卷罗马史诗。
