Spirits of the Dead examines the importance attached to preserving
the memory of the dead in the Roman world, and explores the ways in
which funerary inscriptions can be used to reconstruct Roman lives,
however fragmentarily and imperfectly. It is the only study to
examine epigraphic, historical, and archaeological evidence in
order to gain insight into the way Romans used funerary texts to
establish a dialogue with their own society. Maureen Carroll brings
together a large body of material from many geographical areas,
shedding light on provincial and regional variation in funerary
commemoration and even on the differences between funerary
traditions of neighbouring towns.
