Political Communication in the Roman World: Impact of Empire, cartea 27

Cristina Rosillo-López
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 aug 2017
This volume aims to address the question of political communication in the Roman world. It draws upon social sciences and the current trend for the historical study of political communication.
The book tackles three main problems: What constitutes political communication in the Roman world? In what ways could information be transmitted and represented? What mechanisms made political communication successful or unsuccessful?
This edited volume covers questions like speech and mechanisms of political communication, political communication at a distance, bottom-up communication, failure of communication and representation of political communication.
It will be of help to specialists in the Roman world, but also to students and researchers of political sciences, and specialists of political communication in pre-industrial times.

Recenzii

''Given the increasing interest in the transmission and impact of political speech and rhetoric, this edited volume of papers on ''political communication in the Roman world'' is a welcome publication for those who study the cultural, social, and political history of Republican and Imperial Rome, and it will surely promote further research, as well as discussion and debate.'' Moysés Marcos, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2018.04.38 "Dans son ensemble, il jette quelques coups de projecteur sur le vaste sujet de la communication politique à Rome en couvrant un large arc chronologique. De plus, il a le mérite de montrer divers aspects de la communication dans l'Antiquité romaine, en reliant son étude aux notions rhétoriques, aux conventions et codes de l'oligarchie dirigeante de Rome et au concept de “sociologie interactionniste" appliqué aux rumeurs émanant des masses populaires."L. Borgies, Latomus 78/2, June 2019.
