Roman Social Relations, 50 B.C. to A.D. 284 - Paperback

by Ramsay MacMullen (Author)

"In this interesting and suggestive book, Professor MacMullen views anew an important and rather neglected aspect of Roman social relations. A perceptive and sensitive interpreter, he has drawn widely upon the scattered and unorganized evidence about the poorer classes, rural and urban, in much of the Roman Empire, and presents a fresh picture of their conditions, attitudes, and aims." -T.
