ISBN10: 0199245061, ISBN13: 9780199245062, [publisher: Oxford University Press] Hardcover First Edition Hardback. A very good copy in a fine dustwrapper. The book is not fine because the word "Damaged" has been stamped on the title page. The only damage I can find is a very minor tear in the cloth at the foot of the spine. Otherwise the book appears pristine. Pp.x,483. The book contains fifteen original essays which "cover theoretical and methodological issues and key aspects of the contact between Latin and Greek and among Latin, Greek and other languages." The volume "aims to introduce classicists, ancient historians and other scholars interested in sociolinguistic research to the evidence of bilingualism in the ancient Mediterranean world."

This volume introduces classicists, ancient historians, and other scholars interested in sociolinguistics to bilingualism in the ancient Mediterranean. The fifteen chapters cover theoretical and methodological issues and key aspects of the contact between Latin and Greek and among Latin, Greek, and other languages. ...
