	Sophia McDougall: Romanitas
		Her Roman Empire has some of the same trappings of our modern world, such as cars and television, but also is true to the imperial practices which characterized the Roman Empire.
		Romanitas is the first of a trilogy, set to be followed by Rome Burning in 2007.
		In Romanitas, McDougall has laid the groundwork for an interesting look not only at Roman society, but also our own world, to which it holds up a mirror, demonstrating that for all our aspirations to civilization, we remain, in some ways, barbaric and backwards.

	Romanitas \| COSMOS magazine
		Romanitas is the first book of a projected trilogy set in a world where the Roman Empire was not destroyed in the 5th century by barbarians, but grew and thrived to the present day.
		Romanitas is an exploration of the effects of slavery on a culture through the experiences of people from divergent classes, particularly the presumptive heir to the Imperial throne and two runaway slaves.
		Romanitas looks like a blockbuster, and the plot is fast-moving and compelling, but it is far superior to the normal run of airport novels.

	CriticWeb::Archive - Romanitas (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		The author promises Romanitas is the first of a trilogy, and while this novel is complete in itself, the back story is set to allow for future developments.
		To add texture and detail to the world of the Roman Empire in the twenty-first century, the author also provides a map of the modern world, a brief genealogy of the current ruling family and a short history of the Roman Empire — the bit that you haven’t come across before, at least.
		Nevertheless, the intriguing idea behind Romanitas far outweighs any deficiencies in the storytelling, and I will be keeping a look out for the next two books of the trilogy.

	Sophia McDougall: Romanitas: v. 1: Compare Cheapest Prices UK
		The struggle is not fully resolved at the end of Romanitas; indeed, one senses that the conflicts will only intensify in the remaining volumes of the trilogy.
		I've seen Romanitas in supermarkets, so it's probably sold a hundred times as many copies as Warlords of Utopia, but that other book is about a hundred times better.
		Initially I felt that the story lacked particularity in its description of people, places, and things and this was borne out throughout the length of the book with descriptions of objects being reduced to the equivalent of a cursory glance.

	Emerald City: Science Fiction and Fantasy Book Reviews - #131
		However, despite the epic-ness of scope suggested by bare geography, Romanitas is not a novel on the large scale (although it is a lengthy 572 pages).
		Romanitas maintains this consciously poetic timbre throughout, invoking, as it does literally on several occasions, Virgil.
		The fact of the matter is that Romanitas doesn’t try hard enough at being an alternate history: it wants to be a character story and manages it tolerably well, but in doing so it leaves its central conceit to flounder.

	Absque Roma IIc: Romanitas and some other matters
		Romanitas is one's civilized character: drive and determination by Roman standards, as seen by the character himself.
		The civitas's decline away from Romanitas is handled partly mechanically through fl chips that are placed in a pile on the table every session.
		Another problem is that Romanitas and Animus ratings are constantly in flux: a character might have a very low rating in either one at a given moment, because he's constantly getting in the points and spending them immediately.

	ROMANITAS: Sophia McDougall (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Romanitas is the first in a planned series of three novels set in an imagined present where the Roman Empire spans the world from the eastern border of India across the Atlantic.
		Leo was assumed by all to be the heir to the throne, and his secretary believes that the crash was anything but accidental -- that it was carried out by people who feared the economic repercussions of Leo's stated intention, when he became emperor, to abolish slavery.
		Romanitas suffers from its position in a planned trilogy, in that it has to set up a story but is not allowed to be the whole story in and of itself.

	Romanitas by Sophia McDougall
		ROMANITAS is beautifully written, being literary without alientating the reader...a modern classic'
		His > work is categorized as science fiction, which in the wider literary world tends to be (to quote the late George Brown MP) "treated with a total ignoral".
		Sophia McDougall's Romanitas is also SF, sub-section "alternative history", but its cover hardly makes that clear so a happy surprise awaits impulse buyers.

		Romanitas is translated as the Roman way of life, and to have it is to be Roman.
		Romanitas is particularly focused on the values of the character’s immediate community, his civitas.
		Romanitas can only be spent towards things that are generally associated with civilization: with the character’s Roman Values, with the Civitas, with helping other Romanized peoples, or with Roman ideals and civilization in general.

	Romanitas
		It is they who practise the spreading of heresies and political speculations, it is they who in reply to the narrowly church-centred criticism, spread various “open letters” to the whole world, some of which are based on unreliable information, and others containing straight personal slander.
		Their slander against the server “Romanitas”, and their general persecution, has been unprecedented.
		Their lack of desire to preserve the common decencies and obligations speaks for itself.

	Romanitas by Sophia McDougall
		I now live near the stretch of Thames that is so important in the first chapters of Romanitas — although I didn’t while I was working on that section.
		The plot for the one I’m working on now is more complicated, so it needed more precise planning in advance, which in practice means talking and talking and talking about it to anyone who will listen.
		I was only able to write the chapter set in the ‘cave of hands’ (the Grottes de Gargas) thanks to an airport strike.

		We only have to look to the last election in the Ukraine to see that poison is still in use to gain power (only there, a popular uprising forced an unexpected ‘democratic’ result).
		Sure we need heroes in a world without them but a slave girl with such extraordinary shaman powers to read ones innermost thoughts and cloud the minds of others so that they cannot see you walk by is special enough.
		Romanitas is an exciting read and anyone who has grown up on Philip Pullman and doesn’t know where to go for an exciting tale with some original ideas about an alternative European history, Romanitas is an thrilling tale filled with treachery, colourful imagery and fully imagined past.

	OVERVIEW OF THE RESEARCH GROUP FROM ROMANITAS TO CHRISTIANITAS
		The set of values and ideas that constituted the Roman identity was named romanitas by the Christian apologetics who wanted to prove the Christian religion was not against the Roman values.
		During the first centuries of the Christian church the concept romanitas evolved into the concept christianitas, but the essential values of romanness were never lost.
		The starting point of the project is that there is no stable identity but the identity is re-created from time to time by cultural processes of the group.

		But while Romanitas focuses on the character's sense of being civilized, Animus appeals instead to his basic human nature.

		Romanitas combines a strong feeling for place, from the streets of Imperial Rome to the refuge for slaves in the Pyrenees, with a well-paced narrative and compelling characters.
		It's a bottom-up view of this alternative world, seen from the point of view of fugitives (albeit one of them is heir to the throne).
		Here, the world is seen through the eyes of the aging emperor, Faustus, wounded by the betrayal and death of his much younger wife, Tulliola.
