The Panegyric Latini - 65% off
« on: November 29, 2004, 02:56:24 pm »
I just came across this awesome sale price on "In Praise of Later Roman Emperors: The Panegyric Latini", and thought others might be interested. This is an english translation of 11 of the 12 "XII Panegyric Latini" - speeches made contempary to and about some of the later roman emperors around Constantine's time.

There's a review of the book here:

The book lists for $85 at Amazon, but I found this sale at the University of California press, where you can buy it for $29.95 - 65% off! (Cheapest new price at abebooks.com was $69.95)

In order to receive the discount code you have to register for their free e-mail newsletter - but you can always unsubscribe later. You get the code instantly and then enter it on the checkout page.

I can't comment on the book myself as I only just ordered it, but thought others might be interested in getting in on the sale!

    The book contains copious historical notes according to the review, so I decided to order a copy for my library.  Thanks for the tip!
     I added a copy of Frank Holt's book on the Elephant medallion of Alexander the Great, which also happens to be on sale!
