Memory studies -- one of the most vibrant research fields of the
present day -- brings together such diverse disciplines as art and
archaeology, history, religion, literature, sociology, media
studies, and neuroscience. In scholarship on ancient Rome, studies
of social and cultural memory complement traditional approaches,
opening up new horizons as we contemplate the ancient world. The
fifteen essays presented here explore memory in the Roman Empire,
addressing a wide spectrum of cultural phenomena from a range of
approaches. Ancient Rome was a memory culture par excellence and
memory pervades all aspects of Roman culture, from literature and
art to religion and politics. This volume is the first to address
the cultural artifacts of Rome through the lens of memory studies.
An essential guide to the material culture of Rome, this book
brings important new concepts to the fore for both scholars of the
ancient world and those of social and cultural memory throughout
human history.
