This book explores new ways of analysing interactions between
different linguistic, cultural, and religious communities across
the Roman Empire from the reign of Nerva to the Severans (96-235
CE). Bringing together leading scholars in classics with experts in
the history of Judaism, Christianity and the Near East, it looks
beyond the Greco-Roman binary that has dominated many studies of
the period, and moves beyond traditional approaches to
intertextuality in its study of the circulation of knowledge across
languages and cultures. Its sixteen chapters explore shared ideas
about aspects of imperial experience - law, patronage,
architecture, the army - as well as the movement of ideas about
history, exempla, documents and marvels. As the second volume in
the Literary Interactions series, it offers a new and expansive
vision of cross-cultural interaction in the Roman world, shedding
light on connections that have gone previously unnoticed among the
subcultures of a vast and evolving Empire.
