This book explores the ways in which Greek and Latin writers from the late 1st to
the 3rd century CE experienced and portrayed Roman cultural institutions and power.
The central theme is the relationship between cultures as reflected in Greek and Latin
authors' responses to Roman power; in practice the collection revisits the orthodoxy
of two separate intellectual groups, differentiated as much by cultural and political
agendas as by language. The book features specialists in Greek and Roman literary
and intellectual culture; it gathers papers on a variety of authors, across several
literary genres, and through this spectrum, makes possible an informed and detailed
comparison of Greek and Latin literary views of Roman power (in various manifestations,
including military, religion, law and politics)
