Harvard Studies in Classical Philology, Volume 97: Greece in Rome: Influence, Integration, Resistance

Volume 97 of Harvard Studies in Classical Philology is a special issue, entitled “Greece in Rome,” comprising revised versions of papers presented at a Loeb Classical Conference on the question of the Greek influence on Roman culture, with a particular though not exclusive emphasis on the Augustan period. The papers reflect the complexity of the relationship between the cultures involved―Greek, Roman, and Italic―and span many history, literature, philosophy, linguistics, religion, and the visual arts.Contributors G.
