Spartacus: the rebel leader who fought against the Romans with an army of fellow escaped slaves, is one of the most famous figures in ancient Roman history. Spartacus led his men against their Roman oppressors and managed to defeat the Roman army in several battles. Eventually Spartacus and his army were defeated and put to death. To this day，Spartacus fascinates both historians and the general public. Several aspects about his story have made him a particularly appealing hero.
Firs，Spartacus‘ original goal in his conflict against Rome is one everyone can empathize with-he wanted to return home Spartacus and his men had been taken by the Romans from faraway lands In fighting the Romans, Spartacus and his men initially sought to return to the homelands from which they had been uprooted Spartacus and his men's desire to return home is one we can all appreciate.
Second, Spartacus' initial success in fighting against the powerful Roman army has earned him the admiration people feel when someone who is overmatched triumphs through sheer skill. Spartacus and his men formed a relatively small, ill-equipped army; the Roman army? in contrast, was large, well-financed, and highly trained. Spartacus' ability to seriously trouble the Romans on the battlefield testifies to his military brilliance, making him a hero in most people's eyes.
Third, in fighting against Rome: Spartacus sought to liberate all Roman slaves and thus commanded respect as an early human rights advocate. Before his final battle with the Romans, Spartacus was sent an offer by a Roman general: if Spartacus would stop fighting, he would be made a Roman senator, a member of Rome's powerful elite: and his men would be freed. However, Spartacus rejected this offer because it would have left the institution of slavery in place.
According to the passage Spartacus is recogniaed as some one that inspires and fascinates a wide variety of people. It's written in the article that Spartacus was a rebel leader and military genious, that fought against the Romans army to free slaves and return back to his home country. The lecturer argues against the passage by pointing out that the information in the passage is based on unaccurate and false information.
First, the passage points that Spartacus' goal was to return back home something the general public can emphasize with. However, the lecturer points out that based on historical evidence in their first few battles an escape route was opened towards their home, but the rebels didn't return using the route but turned back towards Rome. Therefore, Spartacus wanted to conquer and take Romes' wealth.
Second, the author considers Spartacus a military genious due to his initial success in fighting against Romans army even though they were not equipped well or trained military men. The lecturer argues that at first the Romans did not take Spartacus and his men seriously sending ill equipped and poorly trained soldiers to fight against them but after they were defeated they sent their best soldiers and Spartacus was defeated immidiately.
Third, Spartacus was against slavery and wanted to free all slaves that's why he didn't fall into temptations offered to him by Romans.The lecturer points that there is no historical evidence for this action. She clarifies this by saying that in the 18th century Europe with the existance of slavery there were people that were against slavery. Consequently, to have a legendary figure advocate their thoughts and inspire people they wrote a play that depicted Spartacus as such.
