Abstract

A historical general interest program hosted by Enric Calpena aimed at showing viewers what everyday life was like 2000 years ago. The different episodes of the series focus on a broad range of subjects: power, weather, home, cuisine, sports, health, marriage, work, education, sex, religion and art. The program is a counterpart to the series “La Via Augusta” and mixes entertainment with irony and facts about the customs of the inhabitants of ancient Tarraco in the 1st century B.C. Well-known specialists are featured on “A la romana” and historians Oriol Junqueras, Antonio Aparicio, Víctor Revilla and Igacio Borja Antela serve as the program’s historical consultants. This episode, focusing on the subject of work, features journalist Josep Maria Ureta and Oriol Junqueras, historical consultant for “La Via Augusta.” They discuss subjects related to the economy of the times, such as labor unions, taxes and women in the job force.
