This book reconstructs the pre-Julian calendar of Rome on the basis
of epigraphical and literary evidence, and analyzes its relation to
the solar and lunar years. Mrs. Michels shows how the varied
contents of the calendar were related to the political as well as
to the religious life of Rome of the first century B.C. She traces
the history of the calendar back to the fifth century, indicating
the stages by which a single list of festivals may have developed
into the complex document of the late republic. The Roman method of
intercalation, the character of the days, and the history of the
trinum nundinum are presented in appendices. Originally published
in 1967. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
