Troy Between Greece and Rome: Local Tradition and Imperial Power
Erskine, Andrew (, Professor of Classics and Head of Department at the National University of Ireland, Galway)
Troy linked Greece and Rome. It was at once the subject of the greatest of Greek poems and the mother city of the Romans. Erskine examines the role and meaning of Troy in the changing relationship between Greeks and Romans, as Rome is transformed from a minor Italian city into a Mediterranean superpower.
