The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

audience know near to nothing about them.

this short film and therefore did not get the advertisement of the film or the fan base from any stars
within the film.

well.

period of time it starts at her house showing domestic violence
between her parents and her dealing with being beaten and taking
care of her little brother. When social services get involved she is
split up from her brother. it jumps cuts to different foster parents
houses in which are happening one after the after, through the

parents and the pain she went through with them. There is a constant
voice over to narrate the short film, which just says how the little girl
feels. She ends up at a foster home she's starts to adjust to, she is
then happy at the end when her brother is reunited with her.
8. • Camera: The camera movements in this short film represent and show the
audience much of the pain the little girl goes through without having to say
words. To start the short film off, There is a close up of the girls face, there is no
face expression, just the wind moving her hair, her face is shown to look
distressed, pale and tired looking. This instantly shows the audience that the girl
is the main character. Moving on from the first scene the camera instantly show
the audience the meaning of this short film as their is a range of mid shots and
long shots, using the shot reverse shot to show the girl taking care of her little
brother and folding clothes which is stereotypically the mothers role and then
switching to a long shot of the father abusing the mother. Through the whole
short film there is mainly just close and mid shots of the main character. This is
because they wanted to show the affect the pain had on the little girl and the
expressions and actions it pushed her to do.
9. • Lighting: The whole of this short film is natural light as it is all set during the day,
because of it being a short film they probably didn't have the money to create different
lighting but it still made a natural effect on the short film.

then breaks through to a diegetic voice over which creates a sound bridge over the
whole of the 12 minutes which short breaks. There is music in which represents
sadness , slow, low beat and quiet music through some bits to create an atmosphere
of pain. through the final seconds of the short film diegetic music starts below a voice
over in which gives an atmosphere of happiness as she is reunited with her brother.
• Editing: The editing is very simple, it is mostly just cuts to each shot. However they do
use quite a few jump cuts to jump from different periods in time. To each foster
house. They use these simple techniques. they do use a few shot reverse shots to
show the facial expression of the main character and her going through a tough time.
