We cannot properly understand history without a full appreciation
of the spaces through which its actors moved, whether in the home
or in the public sphere, and the ways in which they thought about
and represented the spaces of their worlds. In this book Michael
Scott employs the full range of literary, epigraphic and
archaeological evidence in order to demonstrate the many different
ways in which spatial analysis can illuminate our understanding of
Greek and Roman society and the ways in which these societies
thought of, and interacted with, the spaces they occupied and
created. Through a series of innovative case studies of texts,
physical spaces and cultural constructs, ranging geographically
across North Africa, Greece and Roman Italy, as well as an
up-to-date introduction on spatial scholarship, this book provides
an ideal starting point for students and non-specialists.
