Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. No Jacket. 307 pages plus index (complete). Volume 1 only. 'The Spectator' was a daily publication from the early Eighteenth Century. This copy, given its age, is in contented and comfortable condition. The leather cover is much worn and marked and scuffed. It is secure and benign. Within, there is age related foxing throughout. However, the pages are mild, clear, assured, utterly companionable, with a presence and perception that rings agreeable even now. A sure book. fk.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the significance of coins as instructive artifacts crafted during the Roman Empire. Coins, the author argues, functioned as small-scale sculptures that disseminated knowledge by featuring engraved faces of revered figures, often along with laudatory inscriptions. Amid the images of emperors and empresses, the coins also featured motifs and iconography that depicted deities, virtues, and concepts essential to the Roman worldview, making these coins valuable tools for understanding Roman history and culture. Through the study of ancient coins, this book reveals not only the currency of the era but also the artistry, religious beliefs, and political propaganda that shaped Roman society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
