The volume offers a more unified approach that proceeds from history to literature, and that achieves a comprehensive presentation of the subject matter. While one wonders whether the systematic appraoch suggests an increasingly \"custodial\" attitude in Flavian scholarship, there seems to be little doubt that the volume will enrich the understanding of the Flavian age for both specialist and non-specialist readers.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\"\u003eAndrew Zissos (Edited by)\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e9781444336009, Wiley\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eHardback, published 4 March 2016\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e624 pages\u003cbr\u003e24.6 x 16.8 x 3.3 cm, 1.066 kg\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Companion to the Flavian Age of Imperial Rome\u003c\/i\u003e provides a systematic and comprehensive examination of the political, economic, social, and cultural nuances of the Flavian Age (69–96 CE).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes contributions from over two dozen Classical Studies scholars organized into six thematic sections\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIllustrates how economic, social, and cultural forces interacted to create a variety of social worlds within a composite Roman empire\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConcludes with a series of appendices that provide detailed chronological and demographic information and an extensive glossary of terms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamines the Flavian Age more broadly and inclusively than ever before incorporating coverage of often neglected groups, such as women and non-Romans within the Empire\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Illustrations viii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes on Contributors xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbbreviations xvi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAndrew Zissos\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I Preliminary 15\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Sources and Evidence 17\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrédéric Hurlet\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II Dynasty 41\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 The Remarkable Rise of the Flavians 43\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrederik Juliaan Vervaet\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 The Emperor Vespasian 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJohn Nicols\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 The Emperor Titus 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCharles Leslie Murison\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 The Emperor Domitian 92\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAlessandro Galimberti\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Imperial Image‐Making 109\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSteven L.
