Greeks, Romans and Barbarians - Spheres of Interaction

Greeks, Romans and Barbarians (1988) explores a number of themes that bind the regional cultural developments of mainland Europe and the Mediterranean Basin. It looks at the systems at work in society - economic strategies, the nature of exchange and trade, the relationships between a civilised core and its periphery.
