Читать книгу A Companion to the Political Culture of the Roman Republic - Группа авторов - Страница 21

The concept of political culture, its meaning and content as well as the explanatory potential of political-cultural approaches, is complex and multidimensional – a selection of relevant publications on particular aspects are mentioned in the notes. The best introductions to the historiography of the Roman Republic in the last century – including well balanced chapters on recent trends and topics – are Jehne 2006 and Morstein-Marx 2009. My own contributions – especially Hölkeskamp 2010 and 2020b as well as the comprehensive treatment of culturalist approaches to (Roman) politics in German (Hölkeskamp 2017a [2006]; 2009 and 2017c [2009]; 2014; 2017e; 2019a and b) – provide detailed and extensively documented analyses of old and new positions, methodological problems and concrete perspectives since the 1960s. Modern introductions to the Republican constitution and political life include Lintott 1999; Patterson 2000; North 2006 and Mouritsen 2017. The broad range of civic rituals in the shape of festivals and other spectacles is covered by the contributions in Bergmann and Kondoleon eds. 1999 and in Rasmus Brandt and Iddeng eds. 2012. The two Companions to the Republic, namely Rosenstein and Morstein-Marx eds. 2006, and Flower ed. 2014b offer surveys on a broad range of specific topics mentioned in the text; Barchiesi and Scheidel eds. 2010, Peachin ed. 2011 and Erdkamp ed. 2013 also include contributions on a variety of cultural as well as social aspects.
