Usages of the Past in Roman Historiography /
:
"Usages of the Past in Roman Historiography contains 11 articles on how the Ancient Roman historians used, and manipulated, the past. What did they seek to accomplish by participating in its re-creation, what tools did they have at their disposal to do so, and which underlying conceptualisations of history can we glimpse behind their efforts? Key themes include the impact of the transformation from Republic to Empire on the production of history, the nature of intertextuality in historical writing, and the frontiers between history and other literary genres. The volume, edited by Aske Damtoft Poulsen and Arne Jönsson, encompasses diverse approaches to the study of Roman history and historiography, with contributors from the UK, US, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, and Italy. Contributors are: Rhiannon Ash, Roberto Cristofoli, Aske Damtoft Poulsen, Kyle Khellaf, Christopher B. Krebs, Christina Shuttleworth Kraus, Anne-Marie Leander Touati, Rachel Lilley Love, Ulrike Roth, Kai Ruffing & Johan Vekselius"--

:
The XXI International Congress of Roman Frontier studies was hosted by Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums between Sunday 16 August and Wednesday 26 August 2009 in Newcastle upon Tyne (Great Britain), 60 years after the first Limeskongress organised in that city by Eric Birley in 1949. 60 years on, delegates could reflect on how the Congress has grown and changed over six decades and could be heartened at the presence of so many young scholars and a variety of topics and avenues of research into the army and frontiers of the Roman empire that would not have been considered in 1949.

The Danubian lands between the Black, Aegean and Adriatic Seas : (7th century BC-10th century AD) /
:
The themes of this volume are concerned with archaeological, historical, linguistic, anthropological, geographical and other investigations across the vast area (and different regions) through which the Argonauts travelled in seeking to return from Colchis: from the eastern shore of the Black Sea and the mouth of the Danube to the Adriatic. The contributions investigate an extended time period, from Greek colonisation to the end of Antiquity, and different cultural influences involving peoples and states, Greek cities, native peoples, Roman rule and events in Late Roman times. Each particular study contributes to the ground research, helping to create a complete picture of the theoretical level of cultural and political development and interaction of different cultures.
