  • Book Description

    Ancient Rome was a vast and multifarious metropolis. By coercion and seduction it drew to itself a population from every province of its empire, as well as foodstuffs, building materials and entertainments from all over the world. What impact did the possession of empire have on the city itself? How did its inhabitants, visitors and subjects make sense of its unique role? How did Rome stay Roman when it contained the world? This collection of essays seeks to explore key aspects of the relationship between Rome and its empire.
