About This Item
University of California Press, Berkeley, 1973. 222p. Paperback. Lower corner back cover slightly creased. Notae doctae from TR. A lot of pencil markings, annotations and underlings (some in red) from TR. Series: Sather Classical Lectures, 43. 'Professor Finley's (?) aim is a wide one; essentially it is to characterize the ancient economy. (?). Although, in my view, we must have reservations about part of Finley's argument and approach, it must be said that the book is exceptionally lucid, stimulating and learned. Finley has felt the influence of the 'Annales' school in France in the stress he gives to explanatory models, quantification studies, and the result of modern specialist techniques.' (M.W. FREDERIKSEN in The Journal of Roman Studies, 1975, p.164).

About Scrinium Classical Antiquity
Scrinium stands for a specialized stock of new, secondhand and antiquarian books about Classical Antiquity. The main theme of our books is Classical Antiquity: texts and commentaries, translations, archeology, philosophy, travel, history, mythology, books for young people, philology, law, reception of classical motives in Middle Ages, Renaissance and our own time and neo-Hellenika (conptemporary Greece), and many more subjects. A more modest quantity of our books concerns countries, civilisations and religious movements on the edges of the classical world: e.g. Egypt, Middle East and Early Christianity. New books are partly in stock, partly to be ordered from publishers. We are connected to a large number of publishers and distributors, established both in the Netherlands and abroad.
