no dust jacket, Ex Library book and has stickers or markings as such. NO writing or markings other then from the library, All pages intact and clean, shows minor signs of wear from use. Great reading copy, Save money and recycle books! Shipped with care in a bubble mailer. --- Edited by Valerie M. Hope and Eireann Marshall, this collection in the Routledge Classical Monographs series brings together scholarship from classical studies, archaeology, and the history of medicine to examine the realities of mortality and sickness in ancient urban centers. The contributors investigate how city dwellers in Greco-Roman antiquity perceived, explained, and responded to disease, death, and the disposal of the dead, considering issues such as sanitation, burial practices, epidemics, and the social dimensions of mourning. The volume offers a multidisciplinary perspective on the demographic and cultural pressures that shaped daily life in densely populated ancient settlements.
