Greg Rowe is Researcher at the Swiss National Science Foundation, Neuch�tel.
". . . this is an intriguing book with much to offer a careful
reader. The publication of several key Tiberian inscriptions
together is useful, and the array of questions raised makes it an
engaging study of the development of the Roman empire."

"Greg Rowe's study of early imperial politics will be eagerly
received by all historians and classicists whose interests have
been aroused by the monumental inscriptions relating to the
honoring of Germanicus and the trial of Cn. Piso, unearthed in
southern Spain during the last twenty years. . . . . Rowe is a
stimulating guide and all interested in the early empire will want
to engage with his constantly fresh ideas. . . . [T]his is a book
which everyone who works on the history and literature of the
period will want to consult. Rowe's book is full of interesting and
original ideas. He thinks deeply about how the mechanisms of Roman
politics operated. He has an eye for spotting historical problems
and suggests constantly interesting solutions. Not all will be
persuaded by the overall vision of imperial politics that emerges,
but all will have their preconceptions challenged."
