  • Explosion of Late Antiquity

    Andrea GiardinaCHAPTERLate Antiquity on the Eve of Islam2017

    From origins in art historical discourse, the modernising tendency has been adopted in the interpretation of many other aspects of late antiquity.

This latest volume embraces the wide range of approaches and scholarship which have in recent decades transformed our view of Late Antiquity.
