Recensione

Review of the hardback: 'Overall this study gives a fascinating insight into the lives of the urban plebs, which the overwhelming mass of our evidence largely obscures ... It could be of interest and value to teachers of the late republic or the age of Augustus, whose lessons would be enhanced by a perusal of it ... an interesting read.' The Journal of Classics Teaching

Descrizione del libro

This 2006 text investigates neighborhoods of ancient Rome during the reign of the first Roman Emperor, Caesar Augustus. Focusing on neighborhood-based voluntary associations that were important political and social communities for the city's population of slaves and ex-slaves, it locates the Augustan neighborhoods within the broader context of the history of Rome.
