The contributors to this volume consider the significance and semantic range of this Roman value in works that deal in myth, history in prose and verse, and the poetry of contemporary society. Though it does not claim to offer the comprehensive "last word" on fides in Flavian Rome, it aims to show that fides in this period was subjected to a particularly striking and special brand of contestation and re-conceptualization, used to interrogate the broad cultural changes and anxieties of the Flavian period, as well as connect to a republican and imperial past. The editors argue that fides was both a vehicle for reconciliation and a means to test the nature of "good faith" in the wake of a devastating and divisive period of Roman history."--Provided by publisherLatin literatureHistory and criticismFides (The Latin word)Trust in literatureRome (Empire)fastRomeHistoire69-96 (Flaviens)RomeHistoryFlavians, 69-96Latin literatureHistory and criticism.Fides (The Latin word)Trust in literature.870.9/001cci1icclaccAugoustakis Antonyedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBuckley Emmaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtStocks Claireedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910967570203321Fides in Flavian Literature4485510UNINA
