This book, a critical examination of the art and practice of translation in the Roman Empire, captures the history of translation by analyzing its role and its impact on the ancient world. The volume is divided into six sections, which look at the history and theory of translation, and how it operated within various spheres: religion, rhetoric, philosophy, and literature. In the book, the author explores the book's central argument that translation in the Roman Empire was an important form of cultural exchange, allowing for the spread of ideas across vast distances and solidifying a common cultural heritage in the Mediterranean world. This book is an impressive exploration of translation traditions in the past and provides an accessible introduction to a complex area of study.
