Description The lecture presented the question of modern depictions of ancient Roman history and everyday life, particularly in films and TV shows. It focused on the most common examples of distorting and stereotyping certain aspects of Roman historical reality, be it historical events, or everyday life. The audience therefore gained an insight into what kind of image of the life in ancient Rome is usually presented to the modern-day viewer (or novel-reader).
