The center of gravity in Roman studies has shifted far from the
upper echelons of government and administration in Rome or the
Emperor's court to the provinces and the individual. The
multi-disciplinary studies presented in this volume reflect the
turn in Roman history to the identities of ethnic groups and even
single individuals who lived in Rome's vast multinational empire.
The purpose is less to discover another element in the Roman
Empire's 'success' in governance than to illuminate the variety of
individual experience in its own terms. The chapters here,
reflecting a wide spectrum of professional expertise, range across
the many cultures, languages, religions and literatures of the
Roman Empire, with a special focus on the Jews as a test-case for
the larger issues. This title is also available as Open Access on
Cambridge Core.
