"Ein Kampf um Rom" schildert die Machtkämpfe und den schließlichen Untergang der Ostgoten in Italien. In der Schlacht von Ravenna haben die Eroberer unter Theoderich das Römische Reich besiegt. Nach dem Tod des charismatischen Königs versuchen seine wichtigsten Gefolgsleute Totila und Witiches in blutigen Kämpfen, die wankende Herrschaft weiterzuführen ein verzweifeltes letztes Aufbäumen, das in dem denkwürdigen Kampf der Goten unter Teja am Vesuv endet. Ein meisterhaft geschriebener Heldenmythos um eine fast vergessene Ära, mit eindrucksvollen Charakteren, die trotz ihres finsteren Schicksals die Achtung vor dem Gegner und die Menschenwürde bis zuletzt bewahren.
