Di tutte le civiltà che esistevano nell'anno Mille, quella dell'Europa occidentale sembrava la peggior candidata per un futuro radioso. Paragonati agli imperi scintillanti di Bisanzio o dell'Islam, i regni frammentati affacciati sull'Atlantico sembravano poveri, impauriti e poco sviluppati. Ma l'anarchia di quegli anni non era il presagio per la fine del mondo, ma la fucina di un ordine radicalmente diverso.

L'inimicizia, il sospetto, la rivalità tra Occidente e Oriente sono argomenti antichi, se si pensa che è proprio per indagare le sotterranee radici storiche di questa animosità che Erodoto compose le sue Storie, nel v secolo a.C.

Varcare quel confine in armi significa dichiararsi nemici dell'Urbe, dare inizio alla guerra civile. Quando Cesare pronuncia il comando, intimando al suo esercito di attraversare il Rubicone, lo accompagna con un'espressione divenuta eterna: "Alea iacta est", "Il dado è tratto".

La storia di Roma comincia con uno stupro: è dalla violenza di Marte, dio della guerra, su una giovane vestale, che nascono Romolo e Remo, i fondatori della città. Raccolti e allattati da una lupa, macchiati dall'infamia del fratricidio, i due gemelli iniettano nel corpo dell'impero più grandioso della storia la natura doppia delle loro origini divine e bestiali: grazia e violenza, sensualità e ferocia plasmano un popolo di poeti sublimi, guerrieri sanguinari e condottieri rapiti dalla vertigine del potere.
