    Reflections on Civic Religion in Rome

    by John Scheid, Clifford Ando ...
    Translated by Clifford Ando ...
    Series series Empire and After
    Roman religion has long presented a number of challenges to historians approaching the subject from a perspective framed by the three Abrahamic religions. The Romans had no sacred text that espoused its creed or offered a portrait of its foundational myth.

  • Law, Language, and Empire in the Roman Tradition

    by Clifford Ando ...

    Series series Oxford Studies in Early Empires
    Imperial and Local Citizenship in the Long Second Century CE offers a radical new history of Roman citizenship in the long century before Caracalla's universal grant of citizenship in 212 CE.

  • Imperial Ideology and Provincial Loyalty in the Roman Empire

    by Clifford Ando ...
    Series Book 6 - Classics and Contemporary Thought
    The Roman empire remains unique. Although Rome claimed to rule the world, it did not. Rather, its uniqueness stems from the culture it created and the loyalty it inspired across an area that stretched from the Tyne to the Euphrates. Moreover, the empire created this culture with a bureaucracy smaller than that of a typical late-twentieth-century research university. In approaching this problem, ... Read more
