- Summary:
- In the eyes of posterity, ancient Rome is deeply flawed; yet its faults have not only provoked censure but also inspired wayward and novel forms of thought and representation. This volume is the first to examine this phenomenon in depth, demonstrating that the reception of Roman 'errors' has been far more complex than sweeping denunciation.
