2025-02-24
The volume aims to explore Rome’s complex condition within the Late Antique/Early Medieval world, where the metropolis was simultaneously regarded as a distant periphery and as a preeminent center of political/cultural legitimacy.
The goal is to use Rome's unique context to examine 5th/8th centuries’ cultures and societies, as well as their interactions, both on Mediterranean and local scale.
