Provincial Perspectives: Beyond the Capital: Rome’s Wider World (3 in 1)

Provincial Perspectives offers a fresh look at the Roman Empire—not from the towering marble forums of Rome itself, but from the towns, markets, homes, and lives of those who lived across its vast and diverse provinces. This 3-in-1 volume explores how everyday people, local cultures, and distant regions shaped the Roman world far beyond its capital.

The Roman Empire’s Provinces uncovers the administrative, cultural, and military roles of regions from Gaul to Egypt, Britannia to Asia Minor, showing how these far-flung lands maintained both Roman identity and local uniqueness. The Economy of Rome dives into the networks of trade, labor, agriculture, and taxation that kept the empire running—revealing the economic machinery that powered the Roman engine. Finally, Women in Ancient Rome brings forward the voices and lives of Roman women—rulers, merchants, mothers, and slaves—who navigated a world of patriarchy with surprising influence and resilience.

Rich with insight, this collection breaks from traditional empire-focused narratives and gives readers a deeper understanding of Roman life from the ground up. Whether you're passionate about ancient history, women's studies, economics, or global empires, this trilogy offers a unique and enlightening lens into Rome’s wider world.
