Description

"This book seeks to initiate two conversations about Roman antiquity, one of which might be described as substantive, the other as concerning method. The two are complexly intertwined. At a substantive level, the chapters focus on a set of topics - "belonging," "cognition," and "the ontology of the social" - as well as a series of subsidiary issues - political and ethnic identity, territoriality, geographic contiguity and conceptual affinity, consent and normativity, materiality and metaphysics - that stand in oblique relation to the explicit concerns of Roman political and legal thought, but which have been, and are today, central to social an political theory."
