géographie et politique aux origines de l'Empire romain

KORTE INHOUD

?This highly creative book draws into the main forum of scholarly discussion two interrelated groups of questions which needed new investigation. How did the Romans see the world which they conquered. What was the nature of their rule? (?) In Nicolet these themes have found a scholar who can fully cope with the intricacies of the evidence, which is fully if not exhaustively set out in this work, and who is also equipped with the vision to see how important these topics are for the central questions of Roman history. (?) Disagreement with some of N.?s lines of argument does not detract from the brilliance of a most original book on Roman history (?).? (NICHOLAS PURCELL in The Journal of Roman Studies, 1990, p.178).
