About the Book

This lively and original guidebook is the first to show students new to the subject exactly what Roman social history involves, and how they can study it for themselves. After presenting a short history of the development and current position of the discipline, the author discusses the kinds of evidence that can be used, and the full range of resources available. Two case-studies provide practical examples of how to approach sources, and what we can learn from them. Clear, concise and accessible, with all text extracts translated into English, this is the ideal introduction to an increasingly popular subject.

Review :
...gives a clear and accurate picture of current phonological theory in a small number of pages. Nina Groennum, University of Copenhagen, about a previous edition This is an excellent book. Clear, concise and explicit about problem areas. The exercises are very good and extremely useful. John Goldsmith, University of Chicago, about a previous edition Excellent course book! Carsten Naeher, University of Bonn, about the second edition "Readers will appreciate an introduction to phonology which requires time and effort to allow a consolidation of acquired knowledge for students and for those who are new in the field. The fact that this volume has been reprinted in 2005 attests to its quality and popularity among professional readers and students alike." Chantal Paboudjian, The Phonetician, about a previous edition
