Reviews

the strength of the book derives from the way in which scholars working on a variety of themes have contributed to a topical debate. This volume ... will be of great value to those interested in the continuing discussion about the reflexes of the Augustan republic to the one that preceded it. Andreas T. Zanker, Classical Journal This volume is richly rewarding. Given its coherence and quality, it deserves a full reading from cover to cover... Tara S. Welch, Phoenix
