With just 350 passages (more than half of them consisting of Latin inscriptions, from all over Rome's empire), Harvey manages to give his readers a real sense of Roman private values and behaviours. His translations of the original texts are superb-both accurate and elegant.  And he contextualizes his chosen passages with a series of remarkably economical but solidly reliable introductions.
