The Roman Empire: Economy, Society and Culture Paperback - 2014
by Peter Garnsey; Richard Saller; Contribution by Jas Elsner
From the rear cover
"Brilliantly conceived by two of the greatest living authorities on ancient Rome and an instant classic when it first appeared, this magisterial work has been generously expanded and updated to incorporate the latest scholarship. We could not wish for a more penetrating analysis of the foundations of Roman civilization." --Walter Scheidel, Dickason Professor in the Humanities, Stanford University
"Garnsey and Saller's The Roman Empire is unsurpassed as a clear and thought-provoking introduction to key themes and issues in the economic, social, and cultural history of Rome. This new edition, expanding the book's scope and offering a guide to the most important recent research, ensures that it will remain essential reading for students for years to come." --Neville Morley, Professor of Ancient History, University of Bristol "A now-classic introduction to the Roman Empire, which was always much more than a mere introduction and whose contents have withstood the test of time, is now made available in an even better edition, with new contributions on resistance, religion, and culture by Martin Goodman, Richard Gordon, Jas Elsner, and Greg Woolf. The bibliographical addenda are mines of information: sure guides to the best of recent scholarship on every aspect of the empire covered by the authors. This new edition of The Roman Empire is highly recommended as simply the best entre to the big aspects and the big problems of the Roman Empire at the height of its power." --Brent D. Shaw, Andrew Fleming West Professor of Classics, Princeton University "Freshly revised for the twenty-first century, Garnsey and Saller's masterful survey remains the indispensable introduction to society and the economy under the emperors. Scholars as well as students will mine its updated bibliography for authoritative guidance to recent research, while the new chapter and addenda enhance the book's value for the classroom." --Nathan Rosenstein, Professor of History, The Ohio State University "Packed with information and ideas, yet concise and readable, this is by far the best available guide for students and general readers to how the Roman Empire actually worked, and its enduring impact on the history of the Mediterranean world. Groundbreaking in its thematic approach when first published in 1987, it now benefits from an introductory survey of the empire's political system, and supplements to each chapter that provide a bird's-eye view of the questions raised and debated in a generation of new research." --Dominic Rathbone, Professor of Ancient History, King's College LondonDetails
