"The Province of Achaea in the 2nd Century CE explores the conception and utilization
of the Greek past in the Roman province of Achaea in the 2nd century CE, and the reception
of the artistic, cultural, and intellectual outputs of this century in later periods.
Achaea, often defined by international scholars as "old Greece", was the only Roman
province located entirely within the confines of the Modern Greek state. In many ways,
Achaea in the 2nd Century CE witnessed a second Golden Age, one based on collective
historical nostalgia under Roman imperial protection and innovation. The papers in
this volume are holistic in scope, with special emphasis on Roman imperial relations
with the people of Achaea and their conceptualizations of their past. Material culture,
monumental and domestic spaces, and artistic representations are discussed, as well
as the literary output of individuals like Plutarch, Herodes Atticus, Aelius Aristides,
and others. The debate over Roman influence in various Hellenic cities and the significance
of collective historical nostalgia also feature in this volume, as does the utilization
of Achaea's past in the Roman present within the wider empire. As this century has
produced the highest percentage of archaeological and literary material from the Roman
period in the province under consideration, the time is ripe to position it more firmly
in the academic discourse of studies of the Roman Empire. The Province of Achaea in
the 2nd Century CE will appeal to scholars, students, and other individuals who are
interested in the history, archaeology, art, and literature of the Graeco-Roman world
and its reception"
