Donahue, Werner Eck, Tom Elliott, Garrett G. Fagan, Christopher Fuhrmann, Cheryl L. Golden, George W. Houston, Jerzy Linderski, Michael Maas, Fred S. Naiden, Jonathan Scott Perry, Daniëlle Slootjes, Philip A. Stadter, Brian Turner.

"The volume achieves three distinct objectives. First, by adopting a diachronic approach, the editors encourage the reader to draw connections across time and discipline. (...) Second, while this volume, as is typical with Festschriften, demonstrates an extraordinary diversity in topics, each article remains extraordinarily accessible. As such, even non-experts would find a starting point for further exploration. Third, Talbert’s scholarship is a part of each paper, demonstrating further his broad influence on scholarship of antiquity. Scholars, though their interests may range from Alexander’s wars to late-antique dioceses, will find something of value in this volume, not just in their area of expertise, but in others as well. Much like Talbert’s many important contributions, this volume should find itself in libraries of ancient historians and philologist of extremely diverse interests." Laurent J.
