1994réf. 53186Leiden: E. J. Brill 1994. First edition. Hardcover. Very good . Octavo. 10 392 2pp. Index and 32 page bibliography. Text in English with some Hebrew & Greek added for emphasis. Blue cloth gilt publisher's device on front cover. Frontispiece portrait of Morton Smith. An ex-library copy with minimal rubber stamping on title & at bottom of text block and with the trace of a removed library pocket on rear pastedown. Josephus and the History of the Greco-Roman Period comprises a series of essays on the Jewish historian Flavius Josephus and on the history of the Second Temple period by many of the best-known specialists in the field. The contributions are revised versions of papers delivered at an international colloquium in memory of Professor Morton Smith that was held at San Miniato Italy in November 1992. The essays cover a broad range of historical and historiographical issues concerning the Seleucid Hasmonean Herodian and Roman periods for which the importance of Josephus - often our only extant source - can hardly be overestimated. Josephus' trustworthiness as a historian is newly investigated from various angles. Fresh light is thrown on philological literary geographical archaeological sociological and religious questions. The book includes a critical evaluation of Morton Smith's scholarly achievement.
