Description: |
While historians, sociologists, and political scientists have long recognized the importance of the Roman Empire, surprisingly little serious comparative analysis is available on this period in world history. The Roman Empire in Context: Historical and Comparative Perspectives addresses this neglected area of study. |
Synopsis: |
Through a series of original essays by leading international scholars, The Roman Empire in Context: Historical and Comparative Perspectives offers a comparative historical analysis of the Roman empire's role and achievement and, more broadly, establishes Rome's significance within comparative studies. * Fills a gap in comparative historical analysis of the Roman empire's role and achievement * Features contributions from more than a dozen distinguished scholars from around the world * Explores the relevance of important comparativist themes of state, empire, and civilization to ancient Rome |
