Transformations of Late Antiquity: Essays for Peter Brown

By Manolis Papoutsakis, Peter R.L. Brown, Philip Rousseau

'Transformation' is a notion apposite to essays in honour of Peter Brown. 'The transformation of the classical heritage' is a theme to which he has devoted, and continues to devote, much energy. All the essays here in some way explore this notion of transformation; the late antique ability to turn the past to new uses, and to set its wealth of principle and insight to work in new settings.
