Beginning with the gladiators’ ritual ‘Hail, Caesar! They who are about to die salute you’ on 1 January, WB Marsh’s year of great quotations and the stories behind them ranges across history from antiquity to 2016. The words of participants, whether kings, revolutionaries or poets, offer intriguing and often surprising perspectives on historic events: the ‘empire on which the sun never sets’ turns out to be, not the British, but the Holy Roman Empire, ruled by Charles V from 28 June 1519.
