The Roman interaction with Greek culture encompassed most areas of Roman culture. Compartmentalized studies have been the norm, and this broader perspective fills a real need.” —Karl Galinsky, University of Texas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“This book provides a series of engaging, well-written, and well-conceived essays on a topic that will be of great interest to Greek and Roman scholars alike: Roman Hellenism. The contributors and editors have deftly provided a unified consideration of Roman Hellenism in text and material culture, and they are to be commended for writing a volume that bridges disciplinary divides and showcases how interdisciplinary discussions and analyses can further our understanding of multifaceted concepts like Roman Hellenism.” —Brenda Longfellow, University of Iowa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eList of Illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbbreviations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ci\u003eBasil Dufallo and Riemer A.
