They are a priceless source for palaeographers investigating the history of Latin writing, inasmuch as they represent a real archive containing documents produced by scribes who were presumably competent in both Latin and Greek. Historians of the Roman Empire and Roman army are offered a glance inside the everyday life of a Roman camp built within a Hellenized town of Semitic origin with a flourishing Jewish community. The papyri also provide glimpses into spoken Latin and substandard varieties, and the Latin texts survive alongside written samples of eight other languages (Greek, Palmyrenean, Hatrean, Syriac, Parthian and Pehlevi, Hebrew and Safaitic). The editions are accompanied by translations and notes, while the volume also includes a substantial introduction, appendix, and thorough commentary on the Feriale Duranum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Giulio Iovine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 450\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 6.85w x 1.81d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781009183130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eIovine, Giulio:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - GIULIO IOVINE is a Marie Curie Global Fellow and Senior Researcher at the Dipartimento di Storia Culture Civiltà (DISCI) at the Università di Bologna 'Alma Mater Studiorum'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43652877582451,"sku":"9.78101E+12","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_b475b480-0e8e-4b76-838e-a0a030a121fa.jpg?v=1756294789","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/latin-military-papyri-of-dura-europos-pdura-55-145-a-new-edition-of-the-texts-with-introduction-and-notes-9781009183130","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
