Roemische Werte ALS Gegenstand Der Altertumswissenschaft (German, Hardcover, 1. Aufl.., 1st Ed.)

Are the Roman values focused upon above all by Latinists in the first half of the 20th century, still relevant to the classical studies of today, or can they, in view of new research approaches and interdisciplinary discourse, still be of interest? This volume, the result of an "Institutionalism and Historicity" special research area seminar at Dresden Technical University, discusses this question in a productive manner. Eleven contributions, written by classical philologists, ancient historians and classical archaeologists, offer a range of critical surveys as well as on-going conceptual ideas and concrete individual studies.
