Rezension

"Strabo's "colossal work" is one of the most fascinating and puzzling accounts of the Roman world, a richly layered ethnographic and political commentary on the Mediterranean in transition, viewed at close quarters by a polymathic historian-geographer. This companion, written by a well-chosen international team of experts, brings to a wider public the very best of recent scholarship on this extraordinary and under-estimated work."

- Greg Woolf, Institute of Classical Studies at the School of Advance Study, UK

"With the current 'spatial turn' in ancient studies, Strabo has been attracting attention on a scale not seen since the Renaissance. This most welcome Companion to his work - the first ever - ranges wide and deep. It will have lasting value."

- Richard Talbert, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA

"[this book] is a useful tool for Strabo specialists because of the variety of topics covered, but also for those who are passionate about ancient geography."

- Mélanie Lozat, Université de Genève, Switzerland, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2019
