Roman Egypt is a critical area of interdisciplinary research, which
has steadily expanded since the 1970s and continues to grow. Egypt
played a pivotal role in the Roman empire, not only in terms of
political, economic, and military strategies, but also as part of
an intricate cultural discourse involving themes that resonate
today - east and west, old world and new, acculturation and
shifting identities, patterns of language use and religious belief,
and the management of agriculture and trade. Roman Egypt was a
literal and figurative crossroads shaped by the movement of people,
goods, and ideas, and framed by permeable boundaries of self and
space. This handbook is unique in drawing together many different
strands of research on Roman Egypt, in order to suggest both the
state of knowledge in the field and the possibilities for
collaborative, synthetic, and interpretive research. Arranged in
seven thematic sections, each of which includes essays from a
variety of disciplinary vantage points and multiple sources of
information, it offers new perspectives from both established and
younger scholars, featuring individual essay topics, themes, and
intellectual juxtapositions.
