rif. 63221Blackwell 2001 Oxford. XIII761p. Large paperback. Upper corner pp.35-74 slightly bumped. Still a nice copy. 'The Corrupting Sea' is a book that all classicists should read. . A real strenght of the book for the historian of antiquity is the breaking of the academic division of antiquity from the medieval period. Horden and Purcell stress the similarities between micro-regions across space and time yet manage to emphasize the differences between a micro-region and its neighbours. This seemingly paradoxical position is in fact an analytical strenght since by placing the emphasis in this way . H. & P. have managed to create a dynamic viewpoint of the Mediterranean past that encapsulates the whole whilst defining the rôle of the micro-region. . The book demonstrates how far ancient history has moved on from the Finley orthodoxy I was taught as an undergraduate and at the same time exposes the general weakness of historical method within the study of the history of the Mediterranean. The emphasis on the fluidity of place and the connectivity across space is most welcome and opens up queations on the anture of change during antiquity in terms of mobility and the identity of places. . The book . certainly will provoke further thoughts and ideas to be pursued by the reader.' RAY LAURENCE in The Classical Review New Series 2001 pp.99-102. From the library of Prof. Dr. H.F.J. Horstmanshoff. paperback
