- Comprehensive and authoritative coverage of the entire field of Roman Studies
- Written by an international team of leading experts
- Provides an agenda for future research, by mapping cross-disciplinary investigations
The Oxford Handbook of Roman Studies is an indispensable guide to the latest scholarship in this area. Over fifty distinguished scholars elucidate the contribution of material as well as literary culture to our understanding of the Roman world. The emphasis is particularly upon the new and exciting links between the various sub-disciplines that make up Roman Studies - for example, between literature and epigraphy, art and philosophy, papyrology and economic history. The Handbook, in fact, aims to establish a field and scholarly practice as much as to describe the current state of play. Connections with disciplines outside classics
are also explored, including anthropology, psychoanalysis, gender and reception studies, and the use of new media.Readership: Scholars and students of classics.
