This volume approaches three key concepts in Roman history -
gender, memory and identity - and demonstrates the significance of
their interaction in all social levels and during all periods of
Imperial Rome. When societies, as well as individuals, form their
identities, remembrance and references to the past play a
significant role. The aim of Gender, Memory, and Identity in the
Roman World is to cast light on the constructing and the
maintaining of both public and private identities in the Roman
Empire through memory, and to highlight, in particular, the role of
gender in that process. While approaching this subject, the
contributors to this volume scrutinise both the literature and
material sources, pointing out how widespread the close
relationship between gender, memory and identity was. A major aim
of Gender, Memory, and Identity in the Roman World as a whole is to
point out the significance of the interaction between these three
concepts in both the upper and lower levels of Roman society, and
how it remained an important question through the period from
Augustus right into Late Antiquity.
