Recensioner i media

The latest ‘Leventis’ is a fantastically rich and informative collection on Hellenism and the material ‘fabric’ of the early Roman period, authored by experts in several fields and held together by first-rate editing. Students of the literature and the history of this era will enjoy it and learn from it enormously.
