Description
This volume in the LACTOR Sourcebooks in Ancient History series offers a generous selection of primary texts on the Flavians, with accompanying maps, glossary and explanatory notes. It provides for the needs of students at schools and universities who are studying ancient history in English translation and has been written and reviewed by experienced teachers. The texts selected include extracts from the important literary sources but also numerous inscriptions, coins, inscriptions, papyri and extracts from legal texts, many of these being otherwise difficult for students to access.
