{"product_id":"the-economy-of-the-roman-jean-andreau-9780979971358","title":"The Economy of the Roman World","description":"The ancient economy has long been a hotly debated topic. Did citizens of the ancient world understand markets? Did they have economic policies? Did cities produce or consume? What effect did the \u003ci\u003eager publicus\u003c\/i\u003e have on production and prices? Now available in English for the first time, Jean Andreau's latest volume on economic behavior in the Roman world investigates these questions and more. Translated from the French, \u003ci\u003eThe Economy of the Roman World\u003c\/i\u003e is written for those new to ancient economic issues, and also for those curious about the broader context of artifacts they may know well, like amphorae, glassware, or the famous garumfermented fish sauce. All Greek and Latin terms are translated. Each chapter is accompanied by translations of selected original documents from across the Roman Empire: ancient inscriptions, letters, passages from contemporary essayists. Maps of Italy and the Empire mark the many cities and regions that the author discusses in his comprehensive volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean Andreau, Corina Kesler, Ellen Bauerle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0979971357\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780979971358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Michigan Classical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 175\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 0.80d","brand":"Jean Andreau","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47036573057279,"sku":"9780979971358","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c4b1f46e-45aa-4cca-9ba3-30c81e942df2.jpg?v=1752637983","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-economy-of-the-roman-jean-andreau-9780979971358","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
