Reviews

This volume on Roman studies certainly follows a wide and open-minded concept. Far from claiming a totalizing view on the Roman world, it offers in fact what it aims to offer: orientation, but also very much to think about what Roman studies could be, by content and form.
*Bryn Mawr Classical Review*

The Oxford Handbook of Roman Studies is a very important collective work ... The volume is much more than a reference book: it can be read for its own sake with much profit and interest.
*Mikolaj Szymanski, Eos*
