Epigraphy, or the study of inscriptions, is critical for anyone
seeking to understand the Roman world, whether they regard
themselves as literary scholars, historians, archaeologists,
anthropologists, religious scholars or work in a field that touches
on the Roman world from c. 500 BCE to 500 CE and beyond. The Oxford
Handbook of Roman Epigraphy is the fullest collection of
scholarship on the study and history of Latin epigraphy produced to
date. Rather that just a collection of inscriptions, however, this
volume seeks to show why inscriptions matter and demonstrate to
classicists and ancient historians how to work with the sources. To
that end, the 35 chapters, written by senior and rising scholars in
Roman history, classics, and epigraphy, cover everything from
typograph to the importance of inscriptions for understanding many
aspects of Roman culture, from Roman public life, to slavery, to
the roles and lives of women, to the military, and to life in the
provinces. Students and scholars alike will find the Handbook a
crritical tool for expanding their knowledge of the Roman world.
