BOIN, D., A Social and Cultural History of Late Antiquity. Wiley Blackwell, n.p., 2018. XXIX,285p. Paperback. A Social and Cultural History of Late Antiquity is an essential guide that: Paints a rich picture of daily life in Late Antique that is not simply centered on Rome, Constantinople, or Christianity; Balances a thematic approach with rigorous attention to chronology; Stresses the need for appreciating both sources and methods in the study of Late Antique history; Offers a sophisticated model for investigating daily life and the complexities of individual and group identity in the rapidly changing Mediterranean world; Includes useful maps, city plans, timelines, and suggestions for further reading. (Publisher's information). 'Boin aims to make history not just about grand political moments but intimate moments as well. This intimacy comes across from focusing on people - fairly ordinary people or, at least, those generally unknown to non-specialists.' (MARGO L. GOLDSMITH). € 40.00 (Antiquarian) ISBN: 9781119076810
