Companion to Late Antiquity

Rousseau, P.

Like the other books in the Blackwell Companions series this fine overview on Late Antiquity aims not so much to bombard the reader with facts, figures and narrative, but to focus on the most interesting current debates around the subject, examining the "hot topics" in detail, rather than claiming comprehensiveness. Thity-nine essays cover a wide range of subjects, from issues over how Late Antiquity can and should be conceptualized, to new takes on traditional concerns such as Christianization, and the "barbarian invasions", as well as more modern developments in the study of landscape and environment, textuality and identity. 709p (Blackwell 2009, Pb 2012)
