Between Geography and History: Hellenistic Constructions of the Roman World - Oxford Classical Monographs
Clarke, Katherine (, Fellow and Tutor in Ancient History, St Hilda's College, Oxford)
This book explores three authors who wrote about the rise of the Roman Empire: Polybius, Posidonius, and Strabo. It examines the overlap between geography and history in their works, and considers the way in which pre-existing traditions were used but transformed in order to describe the new world of Rome.
