The majority of the chapters are thematic, dealing with issues relating to the people of the province, their identities and ways of life. Further chapters consider the characteristics of the province they lived in, such as the economy, and settlement patterns. This handbook reflects the new approaches being developed in Roman archaeology, and demonstrates why the study of Roman Britain has become one of the most dynamic areas of archaeology.The book will be useful for academics and students interested in Roman Britain.

Recenzii

The editors of The Oxford Handbook of Roman Britain (Martin Millett, Louise Revell, and Alison Moore) and their contributors do much to relieve the place of both burdens. They eschew the tradition of shoehorning the archaeological evidence of Iron Age and Roman Britain into a Rome-centred narrative of conquest, settlement, and civilisation ... Roman Britain is thus liberated from the more triumphalist version of the British origin myth, the winners' take on empire. At the same time, archaeological evidence is freed up to tell more subtle and complicated stories about the changes brought by empire to the region, especially those experienced by ordinary people
For anyone with a serious interest in the subject, however, this book is a 'must have'. The contributors are all recognised experts in their specialist fields. The range of diverse chapters, which it is not possible to summarise within the word limit of this review, will bring the reader right up to date with modern thinking about ancient Britain.
This handbook fully embraces the potential. After summarising the familiar historical accounts, it launches into 41 fascinating chapters
