An Index to Roman Imperial Constitutions from Greek Inscriptions and Papyri, 27 BC to 284 AD (English and Greek Edition)

Roman Imperial Constitutions preserved in Greek inscriptions and papyri (letters, edicts, subscripts, etc.) are indispensable sources for the history of the Roman Empire. Since the publication of Oliver's Constitutions, a considerable number of new documents has come to light, and the need for a complete index to the whole corpus is clearly apparent. This book provides a research tool for scholars interested in Greek epigraphy and papyrology, law and institutions, administrations and provincial diplomacy; it also illustrates the language variety of Greek used by the imperial chancellery. Words are given as they originally occur in documents, quoted in context and arranged according to formulas, common and distinctive expressions, or meaning. The book is supplemented by separate indices of personal names, peoples and places, emperors' names and titles.

Oliver's Greek Constitutions of Early Roman Emperors from Inscriptions and Papyri (1989) and to fragments discovered subsequently and those that he unaccountably omitted. The purpose is to demonstrate the language variety of Greek used by the imperial chancellery. The general index of words is followed by indexes of sacred and personal names, peoples and places, and emperors. They allow readers not only to locate the citation in the mother volume, but also to compare various constructions of a word or closely related words.
