• Includes contributions from over two dozen Classical Studies scholars organized into six thematic sections
• Illustrates how economic, social, and cultural forces interacted to create a variety of social worlds within a composite Roman empire
• Concludes with a series of appendices that provide detailed chronological and demographic information and an extensive glossary of terms
• Examines the Flavian Age more broadly and inclusively than ever before incorporating coverage of often neglected groups, such as women and non-Romans within the Empire
