Space, Geography, and Politics in the Early Roman Empire

"It is the great merit of Nicolet's book that it makes one see very familiar things, like Tiberius' survey, in a new light."
—Fergus Millar, Journal of Roman Archaeology

". . . thoughtful and thought-provoking, acute in its reasoning, often original, and admirably erudite. . . . [Nicolet] assembles a wealth of material, proposes new and often ingenious connections, and substantially broadens the dimensions of the Augustan age. The work will have a place in all future discussions of that era."
—Erich S. Gruen, Classical Philology
