Social and Political Life in Late Antiquity - Volume 3.1: Late Antique Archaeology / Late Antique Archaeology 3: Social and Political Life / Housing, cartea 3/1

Editat de William Bowden, Adam Gutteridge, Carlos Machado
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 dec 2006
This book examines a number of themes relating to social and political life in Late Antiquity. The first part of the book considers how the powers of the emperor, state and civic authorities were expressed in the phyiscal environment, and how coinage and material culture were caught up in the political life of the period. The second part investigates the "middle classes" and "the poor", who are often less visible in archaeological, textual and epigraphic records. Other articles consider such topics as long term social evolution and the definition of time in Late Antiquity. Two extensive bibliographic essays provide an overview of published literature relating to social and political life.
