Greece in the Making 1200–479 BCis an accessible and comprehensiveaccount of Greek history from theend of the Bronze Age to theClassical Period.

By reading later traditions in the lightof what we now know of early IronAge Greece from archaeology and ofwhat early Greek poetry, includingthe Homeric epics, reveals, this bookcreates a new history of this crucialperiod in which the Greek city statesdeveloped the political and cultural

forms which gave birth to the earliest democracies and tosuch seminal literary forms as Greek tragedy.

NEW

The Roman Republic 264–44 BCEdward Bispham, Brasenose College, University ofOxford, UK

This is the gripping story of the rise and fall of the RomanRepublic: meteoric imperial expansion enriched and corruptedthe ruling aristocracy, which was then unable either to rule thevast empire effectively or to resist the challenge of popularpower within Rome itself. Political tensions, enormous wealthand imperial ambition fuelled a vicious circle of competition, in which the number of players decreased as the stakes rose,until two military dynasts, Caesar and Pompeius, went to warfor control of the commonwealth.

This book traces these processes in detail, but also givesmore space than has been traditional to the impact ofRome’s military, cultural and economic expansion on hersubjects, both in Italy and in the provinces. Historians rightlydepend on the narrative histories and other writings of theGreeks and Romans themselves. But these give us largely theview from Rome, and of the upper classes; and some werewritten later and with hindsight. This evidence is importantand is given proper consideration in this volume; but otherviewpoints, those of Italian elites and provincial communitiesare also considered, primarily though documentary evidence.

Further, the latest archaeological research is drawn on toillustrate developments in society, religion and culture whichaffected much larger sections of the Mediterranean underRome. The volume seeks to show what changes flowed fromRoman rule, and how Rome itself was transformed:although the Republic failed, late republican society was avibrant and fertile intellectual and cultural community in aphase of rapid transition, painful but brilliant.

The Beginnings of RomeItaly and Rome from the Bronze Age to the PunicWars (c.1000–264 BC)

T.J. Cornell

’Cornell’s lucid review of whatwe know of early Rome (to 264BC) is excellent value ... The bookis warmly recommended.’ – JACTReview

Using the results of archaeologicaltechniques, and examiningmethodological debates, T.J. Cornellprovides a lucid and authoritativeaccount of the rise of Rome.

The Beginnings of Rome offersinsight on major issues such as:

• Rome’s relations with the Etruscans

• the conflict between patricians and plebeians

• the causes of Roman imperialism

• the growth of slave-based economy.

Answering the need for raising acute questions andproviding an analysis of the many different kinds ofarchaeological evidence with literary sources, this is the most comprehensive study of the subject available, and isessential reading for students of Roman history.

The Roman Empire at Bay, AD 180–395David S. Potter

’The Roman Empire at Bay is an excellently written, well-documented, clearlystructured, very complete andextensive book. Extremely wellfurnished with numismatic andprosopographical evidence andincluding the latest scholarship, it cannot be ignored by futurescholars of the third and fourthcenturies and will certainly takethe place of many previousworks on the subject.’ – BMCR

David S. Potter’s comprehensive survey of two critical andeventful centuries traces the course of imperial decline, skillfullyweaving together cultural, intellectual and political history.

Particular attention is paid throughout to the structures ofgovernment, the rise of Persia as a rival, and the diverseintellectual movements in the empire. There is also a strongfocus on Christianity, transformed in this period from afringe sect to the leading religion.


The Mediterranean World in Late AntiquityAD 395–600

Averil Cameron

’Guaranteed to last for many years. In fact there hasnever been a general, introductory treatment inEnglish, so Cameron has filled a notable gap ... In thefield of ancient history, period surveys are often muchmore than compilations of recent work, but offerwhole new lines of interpretation. These volumes areno exception.’ – History Today

The Mediterranean World in Late Antiquity provides both adetailed introduction to late antiquity, and a direct challengeto the conventional views of the end of the empire.

A world expert on the subject, Averil Cameron focuses onthe changes and continuities in Mediterranean society as awhole before the Arab conquests of the seventh century.

The CarthaginiansDexter Hoyos, University of Sydney, Australia

The importance of Carthage in ancient Mediterranean history isoften underrated. The Carthaginians tend to be viewed as alienupstarts, intruding on or even threatening the progress ofclassical civilization with exotic, if not toxic, oriental ways.

In reality the Carthaginians were a successful multinationaland multicultural society: Phoenicial by origin, increasinglybonded with North Africa, and interacting constantly withEgypt, Greek Sicily and the Hellenistic world. They also hadclose social and commercial ties with Rome and exploitedcontact with the world beyond the Mediterranean, rangingfrom the coasts of central Africa to the British Isles. TheCarthaginians therefore exerted a major influence on peoplesaround the western Mediterranean coastlands, where Punic-style architecture has left striking monuments and theNeo-Punic language was widespread among the educatedeven after Carthage’s own destruction. In the later centuriesof the city, Carthage equalled and rivalled the western Greekpower Syracuse and the expanding Roman Republic.

With almost no writings by Carthaginians themselvessurviving, knowledge of the city and society has long beenbased on what their Greek and Roman enemies recorded.Archaeology now contributes physical, impartial evidence toheighten the colours of this lost society.

This book traces the course of Carthaginian civilization withup-to-date archaeological examinations and translatedselections from ancient writers such as Herotodus, Aristotle,Livy and Plutarch. It also focuses on their religion and cultpractices and the lurid reports about child-sacrifice. It revealswhat the ancient world actually owed to a civilisation whichhas been unfairly disdained throughout history.

Julius CaesarThe Colossus of Rome

Richard A. Billows, Columbia University, USA

Series: Roman Imperial Biographies

The book is not just a biography ofCaesar, but a historical account andexplanation of the decline and fall ofthe Roman Republican governingsystem, in which Caesar played acrucial part. To understand Caesar’slife and role, it is necessary to graspthe political, social and economicproblems Rome was grappling with,and the deep divisions within Romansociety that came from them. Caesarhas been seen variously as a mereopportunist, a power-hungry autocrat,

an arrogant aristocrat disdaining rivals, a traditional Romannoble politician who stumbled into civil war and autocracythanks to being misunderstood by his rivals, and even as theideal man and pattern of all virtues. Richard A. Billows arguesthat such portrayals fail to consider the universal testimony ofour ancient sources that Roman political life was divided inCaesar’s time into two great political tendencies, called’optimates’ and ’populares’ in the sources, of which Caesarcame to be the leader of one: the ’popularis’ faction.

Billows suggests that it is only when we see Caesar as theleader of a great political and social movement, that hadbeen struggling with its rival movement for decades and hadbeen several times violently repressed in the course of thatstruggle, that we can understand how and why Caesar cameto fight and win a civil war, and bring the traditionalgoverning system of Rome to an end.

The History of ZonarasFrom Alexander Severus to the Death of Theodosiusthe Great

Thomas M. Banchich, Canisius College, Buffalo, USAand Eugene N. Lane

Series: Routledge Classical Translations

While an exile from Constantinople,the twelfth-century Byzantinefunctionary and canonist JohnZonaras culled earlier chronicles andhistories to compose an account ofevents from creation to the reign ofAlexius Comnenus. For topics wherehis sources are lost or appearelsewhere in more truncated form,his testimony and the identificationof the texts on which he dependsare of critical importance.

For his account of the first twocenturies of the Principate, Zonaras employed now-lost portionsof Cassius Dio. From the point where Dio’s History ended, tothe reign of Theodosius the Great (d. 395), he turned to othersources to produce a uniquely full historical narrative of thecritical years 235–395, making Books XII.15–XIII.19 of theEpitome central to the study of both late Roman history andlate Roman and Byzantine historiography.

This key section of the Epitome, together with Zonaras’Prologue, here appears in English for the first time, bothcomplemented by a historical and historiographicalcommentary. A special feature of the latter is a first-everEnglish translation of a broad range of sources which illuminateZonaras’ account and the historiographical traditions it reflects.Among the authors whose newly translated works occupy aprominent place in the commentary are George Cedrenus,George the Monk, John of Antioch, Peter the Patrician,Symeon Magister, and Theodore Scutariotes. Specialized indicesfacilitate the use of the translations and commentary alike.

The result is an invaluable guide and stimulus to furtherresearch for scholars and students of the history andhistoriography of Rome and Byzantium.

Modern western education finds itsorigins in the practices, systems andschools of the ancient Greeks andRomans. It is in the field ofeducation, in fact, that classicalantiquity has exerted one of itsclearest influences on the modernworld.

Fullyillustrated and including extensive suggestions for furtherreading, together with an index of passages explored,students will have no further need for any other sourcebookon Greek and Roman education.

Roman GardensA Cultural History

Katherine von Stackelberg, Brock University, Canada

The Romans treated their gardens much as we do: as idyllicretreats from urban living. The Romans developed ornamentalhorticulture to high standards which we recognize, and oftenimitate, today.

This is the ultimate guide to ancient gardens: it is the firstfull-length study of Roman gardens to combine literary andarchaeological evidence with space theory, making it a trulyoriginal approach. In separate sections, this valuable book:

• places the Roman garden in social and political context with examinations of Regal, Republican and Imperial Romans’ relationship with their gardens

• reveals the mechanics of garden design, architecture and decoration

• develops and fully explains a spatial theory of Roman gardens with an incorporation of gamma map analysis

• reveals what we can know about gardens from Roman literature

• brings the Roman garden to life with analysis of how they were used for health and leisure activities

• includes three separate case studies.

This book makes a valuable addition to the growing scholarshipin ancient gardens and will complement courses on Romanhistory, landscape archaeology and environmental history.

Ritual Texts for the AfterlifeOrpheus and the Bacchic Gold Tablets

Fritz Graf, Ohio State University, USA and Sarah Iles Johnston

Fascinating texts written on smallgold tablets that were deposited ingraves provide a unique source ofinformation about what some Greeksand Romans believed regarding thefate that awaited them after death,and how they could influence it.These texts, dating from the late fifthcentury BCE to the second centuryCE, have been part of the scholarlydebate on ancient afterlife beliefssince the end of the nineteenthcentury. Recent finds and analysis of

the texts have reshaped our understanding of their purposeand of the perceived afterlife.

The tablets belonged to those who had been initiated intothe mysteries of Dionysus Bacchius and relied heavily uponmyths narrated in poems ascribed to the mythical singerOrpheus. After providing the Greek text and a translation ofall the available tablets, the authors analyze their role in themysteries of Dionysus, and present an outline of the mythsconcerning the origins of humanity and of the sacred textsthat the Greeks ascribed to Orpheus. Related ancient textsare also appended in English translations. Providing the firstbook-length edition and discussion of these enigmatic textsin English, and their first English translation, this book isessential to the study of ancient Greek religion.

Resurrecting PompeiiEstelle Lazer, University of Sydney, Australia

Resurrecting Pompeii provides an in-depth study of a unique site fromantiquity with information about apopulation who all died from thesame known cause within a shortperiod of time.

Pompeii has been continuouslyexcavated and studied since 1748.Early scholars working in Pompeiiand other sites associated with theAD 79 eruption of Mount Vesuviuswere seduced by the wealth of

artefacts and wall paintings yielded by the site. This meantthat the less visually attractive evidence, such as humanskeletal remains, were largely ignored.

Recognizing the important contribution of the human skeletal evidence to the archaeology of Pompeii, ResurrectingPompeii remedies that misdemeanour, and provides studentsof archaeology and history with an essential resource in thestudy of this fascinating historical event.

Ctesias is aremarkable figure: he lived and worked in the Persian courtand, as a doctor, tended to the world’s most powerful kingsand queens. His position gave him special insight into theworkings of Persian court life and access to the gossip andscandal surrounding Persian history and court politics, pastand present. His History of Persia was completed at a timewhen the Greeks were fascinated by Persia and seems verymuch to cater to contemporary interest in Persian wealthand opulence, powerful Persian women, the institution ofthe harem, kings and queens, eunuchs and secret plots.

Presented here in English translation for the first time withcommentaries, Ctesias offers a fascinating insight into Persiain the fifth century BC.

God’s Wife, God’s ServantThe God’s Wife of Amun

Mariam Ayad, University of Memphis, USA

Drawing on textual, iconographicand archaeological evidence, thisbook highlights a historicallydocumented (but often ignored)event, where five single women wereelevated to a position of supremereligious authority. The women wereLibyan and Nubian royal princesseswho, consecutively, held the title ofGod’s Wife of Amun during theEgyptian twenty-third to twenty-sixthdynasties (c.754–525 BCE).

Despite the overwhelming evidencepointing to the religious, economic and political authority ofthe God’s Wives during this tumultuous period of Egyptianhistory, to date, these women have only received cursoryattention from scholars of ancient Egypt. Tracing theevolution of the office of God’s Wife from its obscure originsin the Middle Kingdom to its demise shortly after the PersianConquest of Egypt in 525 BCE, Mariam Ayad places thesefive women within the broader context of the politicallyvolatile, turbulent seventh and eighth centuries BCE, andexamines how the women, and the religious institution theyserved, were manipulated to achieve political gain.

Troy D. Allen, Southern University, USA

Series: African Studies

Scholars in Egyptology have often debated the followingquestion: was the ancient Egyptian society organized alongpatrilineal or matrilineal lines? In taking a fresh andinnovative look at the ancient Egyptian family, Troy D. Allenattempts to solve this long-standing puzzle. Allen arguesthat the matrilineal nature of the ancient Egyptian familyand social organization provides us with the key tounderstanding why and how ancient Egyptian women wereable to rise to power, study medicine, and enjoy basicfreedoms that did not emerge in Western Civilization untilthe twentieth century. More importantly, by examining thetypes of families that existed in ancient Egypt along withhighlighting the ancient Egyptians’ kinship terms, we canplace the ancient Egyptian civilization in the cultural contextand incubator of Black Africa.

Encyclopedia of Ancient NaturalScientistsThe Greek Tradition and its Many Heirs

Edited by Paul T. Keyser, IBM Watson Research Centre,USA and Georgia Irby-Massie, College of William andMary, USA

The Encyclopedia of Ancient NaturalScientists is the first comprehensiveEnglish language work to provide asurvey of ancient natural science,from its beginnings through to theend of Late Antiquity. A team of over 100 of the world’s experts in the fieldhave compiled this Encyclopedia,including entries which are notmentioned in any other referencework – resulting in a unique andhugely ambitious resource which will

prove indispensable for anyone seeking the details of thehistory of ancient science.

Additional features include a glossary, gazetteer, and time-line. The glossary explains many Greek (or Latin) termsdifficult to translate, whilst the gazetteer describes the manylocales from which scientists came. The time-line shows therapid rise in the practice of science in the fifth century BCEand rapid decline after Hadrian, due to the centralization ofRoman power, with consequent loss of a context withinwhich science could flourish.

Animals in Greek and Roman ThoughtAn Anthology of Readings

Stephen Newmyer, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, USA

How did the Greeks and Romans treat animals?

The campaign for animal rights has grown enormouslyduring the liberal latter half of the twentieth century.However, ethical debate over animals and the way thathumans treat them can be traced back to the philosophersand literati of the ancient world.

From Plutarch’s passioned arguments for animals as rationaland sentient beings, to Aristotle’s lowly placement of themin his Chain of Being, or scala naturae, it is clear thatmodern debate owes much to the Ancients.

Animals in Greek and Roman Thought is a handysourcebook which brings together new translations ofclassical passages which contributed to ancient world debateof animals and their rights. Ancient texts by both literaryauthors and philosophers, some of which are translated intoEnglish for the first time, debate such questions such as:

• How do animals differ from humans intellectually?

• Were animals created for the use of humankind?

• Should animals be used for food, sport, or sacrifice?

• Can animals be our friends?

Arranged thematically for ease of reference, this book will be an excellent resource for undergraduate and graduatestudents, researchers and academics in philosophy andethics, classical studies and ancient science, as well asengaging reading for any reader interested in animal rights.

Time in AntiquityRobert Hannah, University of Otago, New Zealand

Series: Sciences of Antiquity Series

Time in Antiquity explores thedifferent perceptions of time fromClassical antiquity, principally throughthe technology designed to measure,mark or tell time. The materialdiscussed ranges from the sixthcentury BC in archaic Greece to thethird century AD in the RomanEmpire, and offers fascinating insightsinto ordinary people’s perceptions oftime and time-keeping instruments.

Cosmic time is defined, as expressedthrough the movements of the sun,

moon and stars in themselves or against the backdrop of thenatural landscape. Robert Hannah subsequently discussescalendars, artificial schedules designed to mark time throughthe year, with particular attention being given to an analysisof the Antikythera Mechanism – the most complex, geared,astronomical instrument surviving from antiquity, and theobject of exciting recent scientific studies.

At the core of the book is an analysis of the development ofsundial technology, from elementary human shadow-castingto the well-known spherical, conical and plane sundials ofantiquity. The science behind these sundials, as well as othermeans of measuring time, such as water clocks, is explainedin simple and clear terms. The use of the built environment as a means of marking time is also examined through a casestudy of the Pantheon in Rome. The impact of these variousinstruments on ordinary human life is highlighted throughout,as are ordinary perceptions of time in everyday life.
