This prodigious two-volume work produced in honour of historian Edwin Judge gathers eighty-nine essays on a broad range of topics to interest to scholars, teachers, and students of ancient history. Written by an international group of scholars, these volumes include studies of the archaeology and history of the ancient world (Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and rome through Late Antiquity and Byzantium) as well as analyses of modern scholarship on these fields. The diversity and quality of these essays make these two volumes not only a vade mecum on the current state of scholarship in ancient history but also a fitting tribute to Edwin Judge, whose wide vision and influential publications have left a distinctive mark on this fascinating area of study.
Volume 1 of Ancient History in a Modern University contains fourty-four essays that explore important facets of the history of the ancient Near East, Greece, and Rome. The essays in Part 1 introduce readers to the study of antiquity by describing the various approaches scholars have taken to the discipline. Part 2 looks at the archaeology and history of the ancient Near East, considering such topics as the people of ancient Egypt and significant cultural aspects of Anatolia, Mesopotamia, and Syria/Palestine. Part 3 discusses Greek and Roman history examining in depth a number of topics relating to archaic and classical Greece., Alexander and Hellenism in Egypt, the Roman state and people, Rome in the mid-first century B.C., the age of the caesars, and the classical tradition.
