"One really must admire Harveyâs achievement in this sourcebook. With just 350 passages (more than half of them consisting of Latin inscriptions, from all over Romeâs empire), Harvey manages to give his readers a real sense of Roman private values and behaviors. His translations of the original texts are superbâboth accurate and elegant. And he contextualizes his chosen passages with a series of remarkably economical but solidly reliable introductions. In a word, Harveyâs sourcebook strikes me as the best now available for a single-semester undergraduate course." âT. Corey Brennan, Rutgers UniversityâNew Brunswick
