  • Memory in Ancient Rome and Early Christianity. Oxford University Press, 2015. 422p. Hardback. Karl Galinsky is not a scholar to embrace such rigid or facile dichotomies. In a lifetime of scholarship on Augustus, classical reception, and now, on social memory, Galinsky has consistently and vocally advocated the need to tear down conceptual walls ... This book succeeds in telling a powerful story ... anyone who values dialogue -- between science and the humanities, classics and religious studies, or among people of faith learning more about their own religious traditions -- will recognize its implication: memories that have been acquired through learned behavior can, with some difficulty, be unlearned, too.
