Late Antiquity has unified what in the past were disparate disciplinary,
chronological, and geographical areas of study. Welcoming a wide array
of methodological approaches, this book series provides a venue for
the finest new scholarship on the period, ranging from the later Roman
empire to the Byzantine, Sasanid, early Islamic, and early Carolingian
worlds.
