Antony Kamm Series: Peoples of the Ancient World The second edition of The Romans: An Introduction is a concise, readable, and comprehensive survey of the civilization of ancient Rome. It covers more than 1200 years of political and military history, including many of the famous, and infamous, personalities who featured in them. Further, it describes the religions, society, and daily life of the Romans, and their literature, art, architecture, and technology, illustrated by extracts in new translations from Latin and Greek authors of the times. This second edition contains extensive additional and revised material designed to enhance the value of the book to students especially of classical or Roman civilization, Roman history, or elementary Latin, as well as to general readers and students of other disciplines for whom an understanding of the civilization and literature of Rome is desirable. In particular, the chapter on religions has been expanded, as have the sections on the role of women and on Roman social divisions and cultural traditions. There is more, too, on the diversity and administration of the empire at different periods, on changes in the army, and on significant figures of the middle and later imperial eras. New features include a glossary of Latin terms and timelines. Maps have been redrawn and new ones included along with extra illustrations, and reading lists have been revised and updated. The book now has its own dedicated website at www.the-romans.co.uk, which is packed full of additional resources.

ANCIENT HISTORY
NEW
The Routledge History of the Ancient World Series
2ND EDITION
The Greeks An Introduction to Their Culture Robin Sowerby, University of Stirling, UK Series: Peoples of the Ancient World The Greeks has provided a concise yet wide-ranging introduction to the culture of ancient Greece since its first publication. In this new and expanded second edition, the best-selling volume offers a lucid survey that: • covers all the key elements of ancient Greek civilization from the age of Homer to the Hellenistic period • provides detailed discussions of the main trends in literature and drama, philosophy, art and architecture
Series Editor: F.G.B. Millar, Brasenose College, Oxford, UK Designed for undergraduate and upper-level school students, the volumes in this series provide a complete history of the ancient world.

NEW 2ND EDITION
Greece in the Making 1200–479 BC Robin Osborne, University of Cambridge, UK Greece in the Making 1200–479 BC is an accessible and comprehensive account of Greek history from the end of the Bronze Age to the Classical Period.
• places ancient Greek culture firmly in its political, social and historical context • includes a new chapter on ‘Religion and Social Life’.

The Greeks is an indispensable introduction for all students of Classics, and an invaluable guide for students of other disciplines who require a grounding in Greek civilization. April 2009: 234x156: 224pp Hb: 978-0-415-46938-8: £70.00 Pb: 978-0-415-46937-1: £17.99 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY
By reading later traditions in the light of what we now know of early Iron Age Greece from archaeology and of what early Greek poetry, including the Homeric epics, reveals, this book creates a new history of this crucial period in which the Greek city states developed the political and cultural forms which gave birth to the earliest democracies and to such seminal literary forms as Greek tragedy. In this second edition, as well as updating the text to take account of recent scholarship and re-ordering, Robin Osborne has addressed more explicitly the weaknesses and unsustainable interpretations which the first edition chose merely to pass over. He now spells out why this book features no ‘rise of the polis’ and no ‘colonization’, and why the treatment of Greek settlement abroad is necessarily spread over various chapters. Students and teachers alike will particularly appreciate the enhanced discussion of economic history and the more systematic treatment of issues of gender and sexuality. Selected Contents: 1. The Traditions of History 2. Setting the Stage 3. The Problem of Beginnings 4. Forming Communities: The Eighth Century BC 5. The World of Hesiod and of Homer 6. Reforming Communities: The Seventh Century BC 7. The Greek World in 600 BC 8. Inter-Relating Cities: The Short Sixth Century (600–520 BC) 9.

ANCIENT HISTORY
The Greek World 479–323 BC
The Greek World After Alexander 323–30 BC
Simon Hornblower, University College London, UK
Graham Shipley, University of Leicester, UK
3RD EDITION
’To write a standard history which contains the essential material and yet is interesting and says things which have not been said before is one of the hardest tasks. Hornblower has performed it excellently.’ – Times Literary Supplement ’Hornblower’s excellence as a historian, and his wide and responsible use of sources, together with attractive packaging, re-establishes the book’s position as a benchmark for historians ... It is packed to the brim ... with an abundance of erudite observations.’ – Scholia Reviews The Greek World 479–323 BC has been an indispensable guide to classical Greek history since its first publication. Simon Hornblower has comprehensively re-written and revised his original text, bringing it up-to-date for a new generation of readers. The extensive changes include: • two important new chapters – Argos, and the Peloponnesian War • the incorporation of further primary sources
’The Greek World After Alexander will surely receive a warm welcome from students and others with a serious interest in this period.’ – History Today ’This is an excellent book, the best introduction to the Hellenistic world available in English, and perhaps the best single-volume introduction available in any language.’ – Journal of Hellenic Studies The Greek World After Alexander 323–30 BC examines social changes in the old and new cities of the Greek world and in the new post-Alexandrian kingdoms. An appraisal of the momentous military and political changes after the era of Alexander, this book considers developments in literature, religion, philosophy, and science, and establishes how far they are presented as radical departures from the culture of Classical Greece or were continuous developments from it. Graham Shipley explores the culture of the Hellenistic world in the context of the social divisions between an educated elite and a general population at once more mobile and less involved in the political life of the Greek city. 1999: 234x156: 600pp Hb: 978-0-415-04617-6: £75.00 Pb: 978-0-415-04618-3: £23.99 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY

ANCIENT HISTORY

The Beginnings of Rome
The Roman Republic 264–44 BC
Italy and Rome from the Bronze Age to the Punic Wars (c.1000–264 BC)
Edward Bispham, Brasenose College, University of Oxford, UK
T.J. Cornell ’Cornell’s lucid review of what we know of early Rome (to 264 BC) is excellent value ... The book is warmly recommended.’ – JACT Review
This is the gripping story of the rise and fall of the Roman Republic: meteoric imperial expansion enriched and corrupted the ruling aristocracy, which was then unable either to rule the vast empire effectively or to resist the challenge of popular power within Rome itself. Political tensions, enormous wealth and 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 war for control of the commonwealth. This book traces these processes in detail, but also gives more space than has been traditional to the impact of Rome’s military, cultural and economic expansion on her subjects, both in Italy and in the provinces. Historians rightly depend on the narrative histories and other writings of the Greeks and Romans themselves. But these give us largely the view from Rome, and of the upper classes; and some were written later and with hindsight. This evidence is important and is given proper consideration in this volume; but other viewpoints, those of Italian elites and provincial communities are also considered, primarily though documentary evidence. Further, the latest archaeological research is drawn on to illustrate developments in society, religion and culture which affected much larger sections of the Mediterranean under Rome. The volume seeks to show what changes flowed from Roman rule, and how Rome itself was transformed: although the Republic failed, late republican society was a vibrant and fertile intellectual and cultural community in a phase of rapid transition, painful but brilliant. December 2009: 234x156: 568pp Hb: 978-0-415-23753-6: £60.00 Pb: 978-0-415-23754-3: £19.99 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY
Using the results of archaeological techniques, and examining methodological debates, T.J. Cornell provides a lucid and authoritative account of the rise of Rome. The Beginnings of Rome offers insight 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 and providing an analysis of the many different kinds of archaeological evidence with literary sources, this is the most comprehensive study of the subject available, and is essential reading for students of Roman history. 1995: 234x156: 528pp Pb: 978-0-415-01596-7: £22.99 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY
The Roman World 44 BC–AD 180 Martin Goodman Examining the Roman world from an unusual and illuminating angle, this volume explores the central period of the Roman empire from Julius Caesar to Marcus Aurelius.
Winner of the AHS’s 1997 James Henry Brested Award
Martin Goodman focuses on the perspective of its peoples and its fringe areas, rather than from the Emperor’s household, giving a balanced view of the Roman world in its entirety.

ANCIENT HISTORY The Roman Empire at Bay, AD 180–395 David S. Potter ’The Roman Empire at Bay is an excellently written, well-documented, clearly structured, very complete and extensive book. Extremely well furnished with numismatic and prosopographical evidence and including the latest scholarship, it cannot be ignored by future scholars of the third and fourth centuries and will certainly take the place of many previous works on the subject.’ – BMCR David S. Potter’s comprehensive survey of two critical and eventful centuries traces the course of imperial decline, skillfully weaving together cultural, intellectual and political history. Particular attention is paid throughout to the structures of government, the rise of Persia as a rival, and the diverse intellectual movements in the empire. There is also a strong focus on Christianity, transformed in this period from a fringe sect to the leading religion. 2004: 234x156: 784pp Hb: 978-0-415-10057-1: £75.00 Pb: 978-0-415-10058-8: £24.99 eBook: 978-0-203-40117-0 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY
The Mediterranean World in Late Antiquity AD 395–600 Averil Cameron ’Guaranteed to last for many years. In fact there has never been a general, introductory treatment in English, so Cameron has filled a notable gap ... In the field of ancient history, period surveys are often much more than compilations of recent work, but offer whole new lines of interpretation. These volumes are no exception.’ – History Today The Mediterranean World in Late Antiquity provides both a detailed introduction to late antiquity, and a direct challenge to the conventional views of the end of the empire. A world expert on the subject, Averil Cameron focuses on the changes and continuities in Mediterranean society as a whole before the Arab conquests of the seventh century. 1993: 216x138: 272pp Pb: 978-0-415-01421-2: £20.99 eBook: 978-0-203-13420-7 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY

The Carthaginians Dexter Hoyos, University of Sydney, Australia The importance of Carthage in ancient Mediterranean history is often underrated. The Carthaginians tend to be viewed as alien upstarts, intruding on or even threatening the progress of classical civilization with exotic, if not toxic, oriental ways. In reality the Carthaginians were a successful multinational and multicultural society: Phoenicial by origin, increasingly bonded with North Africa, and interacting constantly with Egypt, Greek Sicily and the Hellenistic world. They also had close social and commercial ties with Rome and exploited contact with the world beyond the Mediterranean, ranging from the coasts of central Africa to the British Isles. The Carthaginians therefore exerted a major influence on peoples around the western Mediterranean coastlands, where Punic-style architecture has left striking monuments and the Neo-Punic language was widespread among the educated even after Carthage’s own destruction. In the later centuries of the city, Carthage equalled and rivalled the western Greek power Syracuse and the expanding Roman Republic. With almost no writings by Carthaginians themselves surviving, knowledge of the city and society has long been based on what their Greek and Roman enemies recorded. Archaeology now contributes physical, impartial evidence to heighten the colours of this lost society. This book traces the course of Carthaginian civilization with up-to-date archaeological examinations and translated selections from ancient writers such as Herotodus, Aristotle, Livy and Plutarch. It also focuses on their religion and cult practices and the lurid reports about child-sacrifice. It reveals what the ancient world actually owed to a civilisation which has been unfairly disdained throughout history.

Julia Domna Syrian Empress
Edited by Ronnie Ancona and Sarah Pomeroy
Barbara Levick, University of Oxford, UK
The books in this series offer compact and accessible introductions to the lives and historical times of women from the ancient world. Each book explores the life of one woman or a group of women from antiquity from a biographical perspective.
This book covers Julia’s life, and charts her travels throughout the Empire from Aswan to York during a period of profound upheaval, and seeks the truth about this woman who inspired such extreme and contrasting views, exposing the instability of our sources about her, and characterizing a sympathetic, courageous, intelligent, and important woman.

Terentia, Tullia and Publilia The Women of Cicero’s Family
Olympias
Susan Treggiari, University of Oxford, UK Studying references and writings in over 900 personal letters, an unparalleled source, this book presents a rounded and intriguing account of the three women who, until now, have only survived as secondary figures to Cicero. In a field where little is really known about Cicero’s family, Susan Treggiari creates a history for these figures who, through history, have not had voices of their own, and a vivid impression of the everyday life upper-class Roman women in Italy had during the heyday of Roman power.
Mother of Alexander the Great Elizabeth Carney, Clemson University, South Carolina, USA Presenting a critical assessment of a fascinating and wholly misunderstood figure, this is the definitive guide to the life of the first woman to play a major role in Greek political history, and the first modern biography of Olympias. 2006: 234x156: 240pp Hb: 978-0-415-33316-0: £60.00 Pb: 978-0-415-33317-7: £19.99 eBook: 978-0-203-41278-7

Athens and Sparta Constructing Greek Political and Social History, from 478 BC Anton Powell ’Athens and Sparta should instantly take its place in every school classroom and university library where the study of ancient Greece is intelligently pursued.’ – Times Literary Supplement
Richard A. Billows, Columbia University, USA Series: Roman Imperial Biographies The book is not just a biography of Caesar, but a historical account and explanation of the decline and fall of the Roman Republican governing system, in which Caesar played a crucial part. To understand Caesar’s life and role, it is necessary to grasp the political, social and economic problems Rome was grappling with, and the deep divisions within Roman society that came from them. Caesar has been seen variously as a mere opportunist, a power-hungry autocrat, an arrogant aristocrat disdaining rivals, a traditional Roman noble politician who stumbled into civil war and autocracy thanks to being misunderstood by his rivals, and even as the ideal man and pattern of all virtues. Richard A. Billows argues that such portrayals fail to consider the universal testimony of our ancient sources that Roman political life was divided in Caesar’s time into two great political tendencies, called ’optimates’ and ’populares’ in the sources, of which Caesar came to be the leader of one: the ’popularis’ faction. Billows suggests that it is only when we see Caesar as the leader of a great political and social movement, that had been struggling with its rival movement for decades and had been several times violently repressed in the course of that struggle, that we can understand how and why Caesar came to fight and win a civil war, and bring the traditional governing system of Rome to an end.
Athens and Sparta has established itself as a handbook to the main topics of Greek history in the classical period. It deals not only with the established areas of political history, but also with some of the most important aspects of Greek social history and historical methods to the main topics of Greek history in the classical period.

Dacia
The Army in the Roman Revolution
Landscape, Colonization and Romanization
Arthur Keaveney, University of Kent at Canterbury, UK This book studies the way the Roman army changed in the last eighty years of the Republic, so that an army of imperial conquest became transformed into a set of rival personal armies under the control of the triumvirs. It emphasizes the development of what has often been regarded as a static monolithic institution, and its centrality to political change.
Ioana A. Oltean, University of Glasgow, UK Series: Routledge Monographs in Classical Studies Providing a detailed consideration of previous theories of native settlement patterns and the impact of Roman colonization, Dacia offers fresh insight into the province Dacia and the nature of Romanization. It analyzes Roman-native interaction from a landscape perspective focusing on the core territory of both the Iron Age and Roman Dacia. Oltean considers the nature and distribution of settlement in the pre-Roman and Roman periods, the human impact on the local landscapes and the changes which occurred as a result of Roman occupation.

Readings in Late Antiquity A Sourcebook Edited by Michael Maas, Rice University, Texas, USA Series: Routledge Sourcebooks for the Ancient World Late Antiquity witnessed the transformation of the ancient Mediterranean and near eastern worlds. This book illustrates the dramatic political, social and religious changes of Late Antiquity through the words of the men and women who experienced them. The collection draws from Greek, Latin, Syriac, Hebrew, Coptic, Persian, Arabic and Armenian sources. The Roman Empire is kept at the centre of discussion, with chapters devoted to government, society, army, law, medicine, philosophy, Christianity, polytheism and Jews. The carefully selected sources present a comprehensive insight into the lives of emperors, abbesses, aristocrats, slaves, and saints who left a vivid record of their experiences. Extra material on domestic life, the ‘fall’ of the western provinces, apocalyptic thought in the Christian, Jewish, and Islamic traditions and coverage of the successor kingdoms and the rise of Islam is included, providing an expanded view of Late Antiquity. With new translations, images and a glossary this volume supplies all the sources needed for study of Late Antiquity.
For his account of the first two centuries of the Principate, Zonaras employed now-lost portions of Cassius Dio. From the point where Dio’s History ended, to the reign of Theodosius the Great (d. 395), he turned to other sources to produce a uniquely full historical narrative of the critical years 235–395, making Books XII.15–XIII.19 of the Epitome central to the study of both late Roman history and late Roman and Byzantine historiography. This key section of the Epitome, together with Zonaras’ Prologue, here appears in English for the first time, both complemented by a historical and historiographical commentary. A special feature of the latter is a first-ever English translation of a broad range of sources which illuminate Zonaras’ account and the historiographical traditions it reflects. Among the authors whose newly translated works occupy a prominent place in the commentary are George Cedrenus, George the Monk, John of Antioch, Peter the Patrician, Symeon Magister, and Theodore Scutariotes. Specialized indices facilitate the use of the translations and commentary alike. The result is an invaluable guide and stimulus to further research for scholars and students of the history and historiography of Rome and Byzantium.

ANCIENT SOCIETY AND CULTURE
Ancient World from A to Z Series
Sex in the Ancient World from A to Z Edited by John G. Younger Comprehensive, reliable and eye-opening, this A to Z examines the sexual practices, expressions and attitudes of the Greeks and Romans, from Catullus and Caligula, to orgies and obscenity to pederasty and prostitution.
Birds in the Ancient World from A to Z W. Geoffrey Arnott, Emeritus Professor, University of Leeds, UK Birds in the Ancient World from A to Z gathers together the ancient information available, listing all the names that ancient Greeks gave their birds and all their descriptions and analyses. W. Geoffrey Arnott identifies as many of them as possible in the light of modern ornithological studies. The ancient Greek bird names are transliterated into English script, and all that the ancients said about birds is presented in English. This book is accordingly the first complete discussion of ancient bird names that will be accessible to readers without ancient Greek.

A Sourcebook
The Beginnings of Mounted Warfare in Asia and Europe
Mark Joyal, University of Manitoba, Canada, Iain McDougall, University of Winnipeg, Canada, and J.C. Yardley, University of Ottawa, Canada
Robert Drews
Series: Routledge Sourcebooks for the Ancient World Modern western education finds its origins in the practices, systems and schools of the ancient Greeks and Romans. It is in the field of education, in fact, that classical antiquity has exerted one of its clearest influences on the modern world. Yet the story of Greek and Roman education, extending from the eighth century BC into the Middle Ages, is familiar in its details only to relatively few specialists. Containing nearly 300 translated texts and documents, Greek and Roman Education: A Sourcebook is the first book to provide readers with a large, diverse and representative sample of the primary evidence for ancient Greek and Roman education. A special feature of this Sourcebook is the inclusion not only of the fundamental texts for the study of the subject, but also unfamiliar sources that are of great interest but are not easily accessible, including inscriptions on stone and Greek papyri from Egypt. Introductions to each chapter and to each selection provide the guidance which readers need to set the historical periods, themes and topics into meaningful contexts. Fully illustrated and including extensive suggestions for further reading, together with an index of passages explored, students will have no further need for any other sourcebook on Greek and Roman education.
A wide-ranging account of horse-riding and horse-rearing in Central Asia, Europe and the Greek world. Using archaeology, iconographic and textual evidence, Robert Drews shows when horseback riding began, when riders became secure enough to handle a weapon. 2004: 234x156: 232pp Hb: 978-0-415-32624-7: £75.00

Greek and Roman Networks in the Mediterranean
Monemvasia
Edited by Irad Malkin, Tel Aviv University, Israel, Christy Constantakopoulou, Birkbeck College, London, UK and Katerina Panagopoulou, University of Crete, Greece
Haris Kalligas, Director of the Gennadius Library, Greece
A Byzantine City State This well illustrated book stands out in its field as the only book currently available on the best-preserved Byzantine city in the Peloponnese – Monemvasia.
How useful is the concept of ’network’ for historical studies and the ancient world in particular? Using theoretical models of social network analysis, this book illuminates aspects of the economic, social, religious, and political history of the ancient Greek and Roman worlds. Bringing together some of the most active and prominent researchers in ancient history, this book moves beyond political institutions, ethnic, and geographical boundaries in order to observe the ancient Mediterranean through a perspective of network interaction. It employs a wide range of approaches, and to examine relationships and interactions among various social entities in the Mediterranean. Chronologically, the book extends from the early Iron Age to the late Antique world, covering the Mediterranean between Antioch in the east to Massalia (Marseilles) in the west.
Haris Kalligas, a world authority on Monemvasia’s history and architecture, brings her expertise and professional knowledge together to examine all the aspects of this scenic and once-prosperous islet town: • the climate • geographical location • history • past conflicts and alliances • politics • economy.
This book was published as two special issues in Mediterranean Historical Review. Selected Contents: 1. Introduction Irad Malkin, Christy Constantokopoulou and Katerina Panagopoulou 2.

It focuses on marginalized and suppressed identities, subtleties and the sub-rational. It is directed at students of ancient narrative, cultural studies and gender.

ANCIENT SOCIETY AND CULTURE
Images of Ancient Greek Pederasty
Athenian Political Oratory
Boys Were Their Gods
Sixteen Key Speeches
Andrew Lear, University of Columbia, USA and Eva Cantarella, University of Milan, Italy
David Phillips
This lavishly illustrated book brings together, for the first time, all of the different ways in which vase-painting portrays or refers to pederasty, from scenes of courtship, foreplay, and sex, to scenes of Zeus with his boy-love Ganymede, to painted inscriptions praising the beauty of boys. The book shows how painters used the language of vase-painting to cast pederasty in an idealizing light, portraying it as part of a world in which beautiful elite males display praiseworthy attitudes, such as moderation, and engage in approved activities, such as hunting, athletics, and the symposium.
Focusing on the works of three of the greatest orators in history – Demosthenes, Lysias, and Hypereides – this collection of speeches is an indispensable source for anyone interested in classical civilization and literature, political science and rhetoric.
Selected Contents: Introduction. Textual Evidence. The Iconography of Pederasty. What is Iconograph? Elements of Iconography 1. Courtship. Courting-Gift Scenes. Other Courtship Iconographies. 2. Ideals/Idealization 3. Consummation 4. Pederasty and the Gods 5. Kalos-Inscriptions 6. Vase Dating 7. Fragments. Conclusion April 2008: 234x156: 288pp Hb: 978-0-415-22367-6: £65.00

Shaun Tougher, University of Cardiff, UK
Leanne Bablitz, University of British Columbia, Canada
Series: Routledge Monographs in Classical Studies
Series: Routledge Monographs in Classical Studies
The existence of eunuchs was one of the defining features of the Byzantine Empire. Covering the whole span of the history of the empire, from the fourth to the fifteenth centuries AD, Shaun Tougher presents a comprehensive survey of the history and roles of eunuchs, making use of extensive comparative material, such as from China, Persia and the Ottoman Empire, as well as about castrato singers of the eighteenth century of Enlightenment Europe, and self-castrating religious devotees such as the Galli of ancient Rome, early Christians, the Skoptsy of Russia and the Hijras of India.
This book considers many aspects of Roman courts in the first two centuries AD, both civil and criminal, and illuminates the interaction of Romans of every social group.

A Cultural History Katherine von Stackelberg, Brock University, Canada The Romans treated their gardens much as we do: as idyllic retreats from urban living. The Romans developed ornamental horticulture to high standards which we recognize, and often imitate, today. This is the ultimate guide to ancient gardens: it is the first full-length study of Roman gardens to combine literary and archaeological evidence with space theory, making it a truly original 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 scholarship in ancient gardens and will complement courses on Roman history, landscape archaeology and environmental history.

Latin Verse Satire
Life and Letters in the Ancient Greek World
An Anthology and Reader Paul Allen Miller A wide variety of texts by the Latin satirists are presented here in a fully loaded resource to provide an innovative reading of satire’s relation to Roman ideology.
John Muir, Formerly Kings College London, UK Series: Routledge Monographs in Classical Studies From the first ‘deadly signs’ scratched on a wooden tablet instructing the recipient to kill the one who delivered it, to the letters of St Paul to the early Church, this book examines the range of letter writing in the Ancient Greek world. Containing extensive translated examples from both life and fiction, it provides a glimpse into the lives of both ordinary people and political life. This comprehensive study looks at personal and private letters, letters used in administration and government, letters used as vehicles for the dissemination of philosophy and religion, and letters which played a part in the development of several literary genres. The way in which letters were written and with what materials, how they were delivered, and how it is that, for certain limited periods and locations, so many of them have survived and how they were re-discovered. By placing these letters in their social, political and intellectual contexts, Life and Letters in the Ancient Greek World draws attention to both familiar topics, such as young soldiers writing home from basic training and the choice of flowers for a wedding, and more alien events, such as getting rid of baby girls and offhand attitudes to bereavement. This first guide in English to provide commentary on such a broad range of letters, will be essential reading for anyone interested in the Ancient Greek World.

Apollo Fritz Graf, Ohio State University, USA
Edited by Susan Deacy
Fritz Graf here presents a survey of a god once thought of as the most powerful of gods, and capable of great wrath should he be crossed: Apollo the sun god.
These concise and comprehensive guides provide a thorough understanding of each figure, offering the latest in critical research from the leading figures and scholars in the field in an accessible and approachable form. Concerned with their multi-faceted aspects within the world of ancient paganism and how and why these figures continue to fascinate, the books provide a route into understanding Greek and Roman polytheism in the twenty-first century.
From his first attestations in Homer, through the complex question of pre-Homeric Apollo, to the opposition between Apollo and Dionysos in nineteenth and twentieth-century thinking, Graf examines Greek religion and myth to provide a full account of Apollo in the ancient world. For students of Greek religion and culture, of myth and legend, and in the fields of art and literature, Apollo will provide an informative and enlightening introduction to this powerful figure from the past.

Aphrodite Monica S. Cyrino, University of New Mexico, USA As one of the most widely worshipped god of the Greek pantheon, and an influential figure in the later classical tradition, Aphrodite merits a prominent place in the Greek Pantheon and the imaginations of post-Classical authors and artists. Monica S. Cyrino explores the significance of Aphrodite for the ancient Greeks, as well as her enduring power as a symbol of beauty, love, sexuality and creativity in post-classical culture, including modern society. This volume examines the complex and multi-faceted levels of deity embodied by the charismatic figure of Aphrodite, and as such, its approach to the topic will recognize and celebrate the diversity of Aphrodite’s several meanings and manifestations. Offering insights into the ancient texts and the current scholarship about Aphrodite, while highlighting her eternal popular appeal across cultures and generations, Aphrodite is both an informative and enjoyable read.

Diana Fay Glinister Diana is a goddess of many contrasts and contrasting functions: a virgin who supervises both motherhood and the origins of life, and death; a deity connected with the most intimate moments of feminine life, who also presides over political leagues of cities, and who is served at one major sanctuary by a priest with violent and bloody origins.

Ritual Texts for the Afterlife Orpheus and the Bacchic Gold Tablets Fritz Graf, Ohio State University, USA and Sarah Iles Johnston Fascinating texts written on small gold tablets that were deposited in graves provide a unique source of information about what some Greeks and Romans believed regarding the fate that awaited them after death, and how they could influence it. These texts, dating from the late fifth century BCE to the second century CE, have been part of the scholarly debate on ancient afterlife beliefs since the end of the nineteenth century. Recent finds and analysis of the texts have reshaped our understanding of their purpose and of the perceived afterlife. The tablets belonged to those who had been initiated into the mysteries of Dionysus Bacchius and relied heavily upon myths narrated in poems ascribed to the mythical singer Orpheus. After providing the Greek text and a translation of all the available tablets, the authors analyze their role in the mysteries of Dionysus, and present an outline of the myths concerning the origins of humanity and of the sacred texts that the Greeks ascribed to Orpheus. Related ancient texts are also appended in English translations. Providing the first book-length edition and discussion of these enigmatic texts in English, and their first English translation, this book is essential to the study of ancient Greek religion.
Illustrated throughout with numerous photographs and line drawings, it will remain the definitive account of ancient Greek mythology for generations to come. Selected Contents: 1. Sources for Greek Mythology 2. The Beginnings of Things 3. The Rise of Zeus and Revolts Against his Rule 4. The Brothers and Sisters of Zeus 5. The Younger Olympian Gods and Goddesses 6.

Religious Dissent in the Roman Empire Vasily Rudich, Yale University, USA Series: Routledge Monographs in Classical Studies This is the third in Rudich’s trilogy on the intellectual roots of opposition to Nero’s rule. The author’s approach is based on his own experience, as a Russian exile, of the dissident mentality in the former Soviet Union, which gives the critical treatment of the sources an intriguing personal slant. The book begins with an historical perspective on Rome’s relationship with the Greeks and the Jews from their earliest contacts through the period of expansion to the fall of the Roman republic, and further chapters are dedicated to the Principate of Augustus, Judaea’s ’triple administration’, the political and cultural vicissitudes of Greeks, Jews and Christians in the period between the death of Augustus and the accession of Nero, the beginnings of the Christian Church, and the conditions of the Jewish community in Rome.

Ancient Turkey
Resurrecting Pompeii
Antonio Sagona, University of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia and Paul Zimansky, University of New York, USA
Estelle Lazer, University of Sydney, Australia Resurrecting Pompeii provides an in-depth study of a unique site from antiquity with information about a population who all died from the same known cause within a short period of time.
Series: Routledge World Archaeology Students of antiquity often see ancient Turkey as a bewildering array of cultural complexes. Ancient Turkey brings together in a coherent account the diverse and often fragmented evidence, both archaeological and textual, that forms the basis of our knowledge of the development of Anatolia from the first agriculturalists to the end of the Iron Age. Much new material has recently been excavated and unlike Greece, Mesopotamia, and its other neighbours Turkey has been poorly served in terms of comprehensive, up-to-date and accessible discussions of its ancient past. Ancient Turkey is a much needed resource for students and scholars, providing an up-to-date account of the widespread and extensive archaeological activity in Turkey. Covering the entire span before the Classical period, fully illustrated with over 160 images and written in lively prose, this text will be enjoyed anyone interested in the archaeology and early history of Turkey and the ancient Near East. Selected Contents: 1. Introduction 2. Earliest Arrivals: The Palaeolithic and Epipalaeolithic (1,000,000–9600 BC) 3. A New Social Order: Pre-Pottery Neolithic (9600–7000 BC) 4. Anatolia Transformed: From Pottery Neolithic through Middle Chalcolithic (7000–4000 BC) 5. Metalsmiths and Migrants: Late Chalcolithic and the Early Bronze Age (ca. 4000–2000 BC) 6.

Pompeii has been continuously excavated and studied since 1748. Early scholars working in Pompeii and other sites associated with the AD 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius were seduced by the wealth of artefacts and wall paintings yielded by the site. This meant that the less visually attractive evidence, such as human skeletal remains, were largely ignored. Recognizing the important contribution of the human skeletal evidence to the archaeology of Pompeii, Resurrecting Pompeii remedies that misdemeanour, and provides students of archaeology and history with an essential resource in the study of this fascinating historical event.

Christopher Tadgell This book examines the architectural tradition which developed with the religious culture of Islam. Essentially heir to the Roman development of space, it had its source in the ubiquitous courtyard house, while the development of the mosque as both place of worship and the centre of the community, its form a response to the requirements of prayer set out in the Koran, was given a range of forms as the conquests of Islam came up against the traditions of Egypt, Persia, India and China. The tradition developed further in tombs, palaces and fortifications, all of which are described and illustrated here. April 2008: 210x180: 674pp Hb: 978-0-415-43609-0: £65.00

The West From the Dark Age to the Reformation Christopher Tadgell Christopher Tadgell covers the major architectural traditions of the period, from the Romanesque architecture of the ninth and tenth centuries, built on the legacy of ancient Rome and including elements from Carolingian, Ottonian, Byzantine and northern European traditions, through to the evolution of the Gothic which heralded new, structurally daring architecture. The book ends with the Italian rediscovery of Classical ideas and ideals and the emergence of the great Renaissance theorists and architects, including Brunelleschi, Alberti, and Bramante. As well as the palazzos, villas and churches of Renaissance Italy, this period saw the building of great chateaux in France, palaces in Germany and the golden-domed cathedrals of Russia.

The Egyptian World
The Routledge Handbook of the Peoples and Places of Ancient Western Asia
Edited by Toby Wilkinson, University of Cambridge, UK Series: Routledge Worlds Authoritative and up-to-date, this key single-volume work is a thematic exploration of ancient Egyptian civilization and culture as it was expressed down the centuries.
From the Early Bronze Age to the fall of the Persian Empire Trevor Bryce, University of Queensland, Australia This 500,000 word reference work provides the most comprehensive general treatment yet available of the peoples and places of the regions commonly referred to as the ancient Near and Middle East – extending from the Aegean coast of Turkey in the west to the Indus river in the east. It contains some 1,500 entries on the kingdoms, countries, cities, and population groups of Anatolia, Cyprus, Syria-Palestine, Mesopotamia, and Iran and parts of Central Asia, from the Early Bronze Age to the end of the Persian empire. Five distinguished international scholars have collaborated with the author on the project. Detailed accounts are provided of the Near/Middle Eastern peoples and places known to us from historical records. Each of these entries includes specific references to translated passages from the relevant ancient texts. Numerous entries on archaeological sites contain accounts of their history of excavation, as well as more detailed descriptions of their chief features and their significance within the commercial, cultural, and political contexts of the regions to which they belonged. The book contains a range of illustrations, including twenty maps. It will serve as a major, indeed a unique, reference source for students as well as established scholars, both of the ancient Near Eastern as well as the Classical civilizations. It will also appeal to more general readers wishing to pursue in depth their interests in these civilizations. There is nothing comparable to it on the market today.

Ctesias’ History of Persia: Tales of the Orient Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones, University of Edinburgh, UK and James Robson, The Open University, UK Series: Routledge Classical Translations Towards the end of the fifth century BC Ctesias of Cnidus wrote his twenty-third book History of Persia. Ctesias is a remarkable figure: he lived and worked in the Persian court and, as a doctor, tended to the world’s most powerful kings and queens. His position gave him special insight into the workings of Persian court life and access to the gossip and scandal surrounding Persian history and court politics, past and present. His History of Persia was completed at a time when the Greeks were fascinated by Persia and seems very much to cater to contemporary interest in Persian wealth and opulence, powerful Persian women, the institution of the harem, kings and queens, eunuchs and secret plots. Presented here in English translation for the first time with commentaries, Ctesias offers a fascinating insight into Persia in the fifth century BC.

The Egyptian Revival
God’s Wife, God’s Servant
Ancient Egypt as the Inspiration for Design Motifs in the West
The God’s Wife of Amun Mariam Ayad, University of Memphis, USA Drawing on textual, iconographic and archaeological evidence, this book highlights a historically documented (but often ignored) event, where five single women were elevated to a position of supreme religious authority. The women were Libyan and Nubian royal princesses who, consecutively, held the title of God’s Wife of Amun during the Egyptian twenty-third to twenty-sixth dynasties (c.754–525 BCE). Despite the overwhelming evidence pointing to the religious, economic and political authority of the God’s Wives during this tumultuous period of Egyptian history, to date, these women have only received cursory attention from scholars of ancient Egypt. Tracing the evolution of the office of God’s Wife from its obscure origins in the Middle Kingdom to its demise shortly after the Persian Conquest of Egypt in 525 BCE, Mariam Ayad places these five women within the broader context of the politically volatile, turbulent seventh and eighth centuries BCE, and examines how the women, and the religious institution they served, were manipulated to achieve political gain.

The Ancient Egyptian Family Kinship and Social Structure Troy D. Allen, Southern University, USA Series: African Studies Scholars in Egyptology have often debated the following question: was the ancient Egyptian society organized along patrilineal or matrilineal lines? In taking a fresh and innovative look at the ancient Egyptian family, Troy D. Allen attempts to solve this long-standing puzzle. Allen argues that the matrilineal nature of the ancient Egyptian family and social organization provides us with the key to understanding why and how ancient Egyptian women were able to rise to power, study medicine, and enjoy basic freedoms that did not emerge in Western Civilization until the twentieth century. More importantly, by examining the types of families that existed in ancient Egypt along with highlighting the ancient Egyptians’ kinship terms, we can place the ancient Egyptian civilization in the cultural context and incubator of Black Africa. This groundbreaking text is a must-read for Historians and those working in African Studies and Egyptology. Selected Contents: 1. The Egyptian Foundation 2. The Historical Context 3. The Family in Ancient Egyptian Society 4. Description of Ancient Egyptian Kinship Terms 5. Egypt and Other African Cultures 6. A Discussion of Cheikh Anta Diop’s Two Cradle Theory 7.

Encyclopedia of Ancient Natural Scientists
Animals in Greek and Roman Thought
The Greek Tradition and its Many Heirs
Stephen Newmyer, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, USA
Edited by Paul T. Keyser, IBM Watson Research Centre, USA and Georgia Irby-Massie, College of William and Mary, USA
How did the Greeks and Romans treat animals?
The Encyclopedia of Ancient Natural Scientists is the first comprehensive English language work to provide a survey of ancient natural science, from its beginnings through to the end of Late Antiquity. A team of over 100 of the world’s experts in the field have compiled this Encyclopedia, including entries which are not mentioned in any other reference work – resulting in a unique and hugely ambitious resource which will prove indispensable for anyone seeking the details of the history of ancient science. Additional features include a glossary, gazetteer, and time-line. The glossary explains many Greek (or Latin) terms difficult to translate, whilst the gazetteer describes the many locales from which scientists came. The time-line shows the rapid rise in the practice of science in the fifth century BCE and rapid decline after Hadrian, due to the centralization of Roman power, with consequent loss of a context within which science could flourish.

An Anthology of Readings
The campaign for animal rights has grown enormously during the liberal latter half of the twentieth century. However, ethical debate over animals and the way that humans treat them can be traced back to the philosophers and literati of the ancient world. From Plutarch’s passioned arguments for animals as rational and sentient beings, to Aristotle’s lowly placement of them in his Chain of Being, or scala naturae, it is clear that modern debate owes much to the Ancients. Animals in Greek and Roman Thought is a handy sourcebook which brings together new translations of classical passages which contributed to ancient world debate of animals and their rights. Ancient texts by both literary authors and philosophers, some of which are translated into English 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 graduate students, researchers and academics in philosophy and ethics, classical studies and ancient science, as well as engaging reading for any reader interested in animal rights.

Time in Antiquity
A Contemporary Introduction
Robert Hannah, University of Otago, New Zealand
Christopher Shields
Series: Sciences of Antiquity Series
Series: Routledge Contemporary Introductions to Philosophy
Time in Antiquity explores the different perceptions of time from Classical antiquity, principally through the technology designed to measure, mark or tell time. The material discussed ranges from the sixth century BC in archaic Greece to the third century AD in the Roman Empire, and offers fascinating insights into ordinary people’s perceptions of time and time-keeping instruments. Cosmic time is defined, as expressed through the movements of the sun, moon and stars in themselves or against the backdrop of the natural landscape. Robert Hannah subsequently discusses calendars, artificial schedules designed to mark time through the year, with particular attention being given to an analysis of the Antikythera Mechanism – the most complex, geared, astronomical instrument surviving from antiquity, and the object of exciting recent scientific studies. At the core of the book is an analysis of the development of sundial technology, from elementary human shadow-casting to the well-known spherical, conical and plane sundials of antiquity. The science behind these sundials, as well as other means of measuring time, such as water clocks, is explained in simple and clear terms. The use of the built environment as a means of marking time is also examined through a case study of the Pantheon in Rome. The impact of these various instruments on ordinary human life is highlighted throughout, as are ordinary perceptions of time in everyday life.
