It will be an important addition to many Flavian scholars' bookshelves and will, hopefully, prompt a similar level of self-reflection with respect to the direction in which our own work is heading. * Claire Stocks, Hermathena * Author InformationAntony Augoustakis is Professor of Classics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Centennial Scholar.
