Abstract: |
See 93/1067 and 96/374 for earlier proceedings. Here, eleven papers consider: the world of the healing deities in Roman Britain (`Alchemy of suffering: hope and faith beyond the healing art in Roman Britain' by Iain M Ferris on pages 1-13); the relationship of ethnic labels to ethnic identities (`Brittanus/Britto: Roman ethnographies, native identities, labels, and folk devils' by Keith Matthews 14-32), a new account of Late Roman social development (`Adventus, patrocinium, and the urban landscape in Late Roman Britain' by Alex Woolf, 33-47); applications of theory to the study of Roman architecture (`Reading the Roman house: social interpretation of spatial order' by Mark Grahame (48-74), `Theories of circulation in Roman houses' by Simon P Ellis (75-98) and `Architectural and social change during the Roman period' by Simon Clarke (111-21)); a critique of Romanists' silence on the subject of slavery (`Slavish nonsense or the talking tool' by Ross Samson 122-40); the reconstruction of ancient demographic trends at Roman Baldock (`Death into life: population statistics from cemetery data' by Keith Matthews, 141-61); memory systems (`Invisible architecture: inside the Roman memory palace' by Iain M Ferris 191-9) and finally a critique of the divergence between the study of Roman Britain and the study of Roman coins (`The interpretation of Roman coins - practice and theory' by Peter Guest, 200-12). |
