MILLETT, M. R., The Oxford Handbook of Roman Britain. Oxford University Press, 2016. 944p. Hardback. Series: Oxford Handbooks. The editors of The Oxford Handbook of Roman Britain (Martin Millett, Louise Revell, and Alison Moore) and their contributors do much to relieve the place of both burdens. They eschew the tradition of shoehorning the archaeological evidence of Iron Age and Roman Britain into a Rome-centred narrative of conquest, settlement, and civilisation ... Roman Britain is thus liberated from the more triumphalist version of the British origin myth, the winners' take on empire. At the same time, archaeological evidence is freed up to tell more subtle and complicated stories about the changes brought by empire to the region, especially those experienced by ordinary people Emma Dench, Times Literary Supplement 23/06/2017 |a 10/08/2017 (Publisher's information). € 163.05 (New) (Printed on Demand) (approx. delivery time: 4 weeks) ISBN: 9780199697731
