This collection of essays, by leading historian Jairus Banaji,
provides a stimulating rebuttal to the prevailing minimalism in
late antique studies. Together, they strike a balance between the
wide lens and more specialised discussion, expanding on the
perspective and argumentation laid out in an earlier book, Agrarian
Change in Late Antiquity (2001). Successive chapters discuss the
scale of the late Roman gold currency, the economic nature of the
aristocracy, the importance of trade, relations between the state
and the ruling class, and the problem of continuity into the early
Middle Ages. A substantial introduction pulls together the themes
of the book into a coherent synopsis, while the preface clarifies
the broad aims behind the study. The book as a whole deploys a wide
range of sources in various languages and is intended for ancient
historians, students of late antiquity, and economic historians
more generally.
