Omschrijving
A collection of focussed essays re-evaluating existing orthodoxies about ancient ethnographic thought.
This rich and inspiring new collection of articles, counting among its contributors the foremost scholars on ancient ethnographical writing, is a timely demonstration of the state of research in a field which is not only naturally diverse in subject matter, but also undergoing some very significant realignments.
This carefully-edited and well-compiled collection is borne by a fascination with ancient ethnography.
