I think I’d go back to some period in the Roman Empire, and in Rome. I read a lot of books about that (and I did Latin as well, so hopefully I could speak to people …) and I think it would have been a great place to be, as long as you were a fairly rich Roman. I wouldn’t want to be a non-Roman or a slave there, though.
Or I’d go to somewhere in France at an interesting time in its history, like Paris in the Revolution, as long as you were one of the people in charge and not one of the people getting their head cut off …
Another period I’m really interested in is the Second World War and Nazi Germany, but I’m quite happy studying those – I don’t want to go back to them, thanks!
