Books in the Bloomsbury Sources in Ancient History series

At the intersection of topography and socio-cultural history, Rome: A Sourcebook on the Ancient City examines the cultural and social significance of the sites of ancient Rome from the end of the Republic in the age of Cicero and Julius Caesar, to the reign of Constantine.

Drawing on literary and historical sources, this is not simply a tour of the baths and taverns, the amphitheatres and temples of imperial Rome but rather a journey through the city that is fully integrated with Roman society.
