<p>Rome! Perhaps more than any culture, we are fascinated by the legend and lore of this breathtaking ancient empire. Much of how we live and what we think in our Western world was birthed in the fabled cities and byways of this sprawling empire.</p>
<p>And, against this backdrop of unparalleled power and political intrigue, the legendary empress Julia Domna emerges. The wife of the powerful Emperor Septimus Severus, Julia, unlike many of her contemporaries, was a valued counselor and astute political advisor to her husband and sons. Regal, intelligent and witty, she was, and still is, revered as one of the most influential women of the ancient world.</p>
