Key Themes in Ancient History aims to provide readable,
informed and original studies of various basic topics, designed in
the first instance for students and teachers of Classics and Ancient
History, but also for those engaged in related disciplines. Each
volume is devoted to a general theme in Greek, Roman, or where
appropriate, Graeco-Roman history, or to some salient aspect or
aspects of it. Besides indicating the state of current research in the
relevant area, authors seek to show how the theme is significant for
our own as well as ancient culture and society. By providing books
for courses that are oriented around themes it is hoped to encour-
age and stimulate promising new developments in teaching and
research in ancient history.
