How would a Roman get that fat? A few gallons of defrutum, honey, and lard every day?

This. You can also see it with Cicero in the very first episode I think. When he cuts off Pompey and says both sides are idiots only to be BTFO by Pompey he also gets in his speaking pose.

Gesticulating was a common practice when giving a speech in Rome. I think it's oratorical pose or posture. Cicero does it too when he speaks in the Senate.

>>3193657
Vorenus also tries it when he's making his campaign speech to the citizens of the Aventine, though it's quite stilted and awkward because he's inexperienced

Chironomia is what it's called. They had a whole system of gestures

>>3193673
gesticulating is still common practice for speechmakers

although maybe not as widespread as it once was since going overboard with it will make people think you're the second coming of hitler

Also cause TV. Same reason actors became much more naturalistic in the same time period. A lot of these wild gestures make sense when surrounded by hundreds or thousands of people, most of whom can't see facial expressions.

HBO's Rome. Watch it and the weep for what the 2nd season could have been.

Someone posted a decent source from a text once on oratory which explained some of the gestures and how to emphasise certain points of your argument with specific gestures. Touching the thumb to the middle finger and waving your hand was apparently a real thing.

the fact that this show went to such lengths as to portray fucking oratory and then kept saying Seezar gives a seezur

>>3194404
Because they're speaking English, Caesar is pronounced Seezar in English. If all the dialogue of the show was in Latin then they could've said Kaisar.

THAT IS PSEUDOBREAD; AUTHENTIC BREAD LOOKS LIKE THE ONE DEPICTED IN THE IMAGE ATTACHED TO THIS POST.

OBVIOUSLY, NOT ALL VARIETIES OF BREAD LOOK LIKE THIS; THIS IS MERELY AN EXAMPLE.

>>3194455
He probably means that second part of first season when they got back to Rome.

>>3194467
Why is it pronounced that way though? You descent your language from germanic family, who all pronounce it properly nowadays. You then got invaded by latn-derived Normans, and yet you still fuck it up?
