  • Memory in Ancient Rome and Early Christianity. Oxford University Press, 2018. 424p. Paperback. 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.
