Recenzje

'The book embodies an admirable fusion of erudition and economy, and Lee's lithe facility with the sources and scholarship makes the transition across themes, centuries and scholarly silos seem effortless. This book will be of great value to undergraduate students as an introduction, doctoral students as a survey and scholars as an overview.' Michael J. Taylor, Journal of Roman Studies
